Life lately ❤️🪶

Feeling firery today. We need Indigenous scholars writing Indigenous scholarship. And BTW yall need to cite Indigenous scholars..too many leave out important scholarship & recite the same dated works written by non Indigenous ppl.

All are invited for this UC Berkeley-UC Merced-California Fire Science Consortium talk 🔥🌱 Thank you CFSC for the flier 😮‍💨 #fire #wildfire #Indigenous #california

Fire historian Stephen Pyne wrote a commentary on our recent 🔥PNAS article: “Fire practices can support appeals to comanage ancestral lands or transfer them outright. Fire has entered the larger discourse over colonization. Roos et al. make this case explicit.” #goodfire

It happened y’all. My team and I rec’d an “accept with no revisions” on our paper to be published this winter. Exciting🔥🌿

My lab’s 1st M.S. student unanimously passed her thesis proposal defense! She is Makah & Wichita and is studying fire-soil restoration🌱 #goodfire #wildfire
