Sand Talk brings a crucial Indigenous perspective to historical and cultural issues of education, money, power, and sustainability. With his unconventional creative approach, Tyson Yunkaporta opens our eyes to other ways of knowing the world as he uses sand talk, the Aboriginal custom of drawing images on the ground, along with carving, yarning and dreaming to convey understandings.

In Sand Talk, he sketches a new model for our everyday lives. Rich in ideas and inspiration, he explains how we learn and how we remember using symbols and shapes along with words to help us make sense of the world.  

Most of all, he articulates a remarkable way of thinking, of learning to see from an indigenous perspective, one that is spiritually and physically tied to the earth around us.

The ideal book to start unlearning the things we thought we knew and replacing them with more powerful forms of knowing.
