There is nothing like sitting down to talk to a descendant of the original keepers of the prairie. Speaking with Reneé was completely unexpected. We literally ran into one another at the Loess Hills Prairie Seminar and within 15 minutes were doing a sit down interview in the setting sun there in Onowa, Iowa. Reneé Sans Souci is an Omaha Native American and I was very fortunate to have her agree to share her perspectives on the land, relatives, our connections with nature, indigenous knowledge, the impacts of colonization and so much more.
