This piece is a part of our series Earthseed, which explores Parable of the Sower’s legacy in shaping our current attitudes toward food futures.
For the first installment of MOLD Magazine’s Earthseed Bookclub, MOLD contributor Lily Consuelo Saporta Tagiuri and MOLD editor Isabel Ling lead a discussion on chapters 1-8 of Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Sower. During this bookclub, which brought together MOLD community members in New York City’s WSA, we examined seed saving and strategies for survival in Parable of the Sower, which Lily first wrote about in her piece “In Case of Emergency” for MOLD’s Earthseed editorial series. Revisit the conversation and follow along with our bookclub in the video below:
