Voices from Bears Ears
Seeking Common Ground on Sacred Land
By Rebecca Robinson; By (photographer) Stephen Strom
The University of Arizona Press
Through twenty individual stories, Voices from Bears Ears captures the passions of the debate that led to the creation of Bears Ears National Monument, a land of unsurpassed natural beauty and deep historical significance. The story of this place reflects the cultural crosscurrents that roil our times: maintaining tradition and culture in the face of change; healing the pain of past injustices; creating shared futures; and protecting and preserving lands for future generations.
