Join the Delta-Stockton Sierra Club for an in-depth discussion with Robert Aquinas McNally, the author of Cast Out of Eden: The Untold Story of John Muir, Indigenous Peoples, and the American Wilderness. The book is a convincing, corrective portrait of a revered but flawed man, and of a movement’s original sins. It ends on a note of modest hope, as McNally jumps to the present to detail how Native Americans are claiming their rightful places in the nation’s national parks. In Yosemite Valley, the Southern Sierra Miwuks are working to restore a vanished Native village and build a cultural center.
