The Seed Keeper (Via Zoom)

Book Discussion

April 3, and April 10, 6:30-7:45pm (Series of 2)

$15 | Via Zoom

The Seed Keeper, Diane Wilson’s first novel, reminds us that the seed of healing and restoration of the people and the land in fact are the same thing. The stories of Rosalia “Rosie” Iron Wing are heart breakers of colonial violence decimating indigenous families and violence to the land by the corporate agriculture industry. This orphaned 12-year-old survived foster care, but sought to go back to the place where her stories were left behind in her ancestor’s bones. Her great aunt is the seed to mature her story and that of her family, finding her resilience and potential. The setting of the book is in Minnesota near Mankato, MN area.

Sister Patricia Jean Schlosser, a Rochester Franciscan, will facilitate this discussion. She has a passion for justice, which prompts her to advocate for people in need. She is a social worker by profession and has 50 years of experience as social justice activist. Her interests seek to find the intersectionality of systems and institutions.
