"Sharing One Skin" By Jeannette Armstrong is an article that explores topics of being interconnected with her culture(s), land, and language. Jeannette emphasizes that, as human beings, we need to recognize our greater impact on the environment than we initially think. The reason is that we can focus on taking accountability to protect and preserve this land for generations to come. Throughout this article, Jeannette strongly pushes for a more Indigenous understanding of respect and identity, while also questioning the human-centered perspective that distances us from nature.
