In Anishinaabemowin, Ishkode—or “fire”—is understood as a powerful spiritual being that brings renewal. The talk will examine the cultural intentions behind Anishinaabeg fire practices across generations, and discuss the ecological role of fire in fire-dependent natural communities and the ways it supports plant and animal relatives. The presentation will also highlight the ongoing efforts of the Michigan Natural Features Inventory and its collaborations with Tribal governments, universities, and state and federal agencies to document Indigenous fire histories and incorporate this knowledge into prescribed fire planning and support opportunities for co-stewardship.
