Stephen Jenkinson | Origins of an Orphaned Culture

This podcast episode features author, poet and grief counsellor Stephen Jenkinson, and it revolves around the topics of Grief, Soil and the Origins of an Orphaned Culture – our culture. Our elder-bereft, drunk-on-efficiency, consumerist, clearcutting-of-forests, fracking-of-mountains, bottom-trawling-of-the-oceans culture. The unfortunate inheritance of Our Day. Some of the questions in this conversation are inspired from the interviewer’s recent reading of the book “Ishmael” by Daniel Quinn. Others come from the pain of being a human in the time of the Sixth Mass Extinction. Please visit Campfire Stories for our films and more.
