- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 23 Apr, 2026 at 05:30 pm – Thu, 23 Apr, 2026 at 07:30 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: As part of the Center for Great Plains Studies’ 50th anniversary year, join us for a free screening of “Prairie Prophecy” followed by a discussion with Aubrey Streit Krug, Perennial Cultures Lab Director at The Land Institute in Kansas.

“Prairie Prophecy” is a feature-length documentary taking viewers into the mind of ecological visionary Wes Jackson, founder of the regenerative agriculture movement. A MacArthur “Genius” Grant and Right Livelihood Award recipient, Jackson has been lauded by the Smithsonian, The Atlantic and The New York Times, among many others, and named “One of the 18 most important Americans of the 20th Century.”

Jackson co-founded The Land Institute, also in its 50th year, as a nonprofit educational organization exploring sustainable alternatives in agriculture, energy, shelter, and waste disposal. In addition to being a scientist and geneticist who has focused on agriculture, Jackson is also a philosopher, educator, author, and organizer. He has spent his life seeking solutions through innovative thought and multi-disciplinary approaches, inspiring others to mimic the wisdom inherent in ecosystems.

Aubrey Streit Krug grew up in rural Kansas, where her parents farm wheat and raise cattle, and her curiosity about prairie stories and plants led her to earn a PhD in English and Great Plains Studies. Aubrey is drawn to the possibility of more just human communities grounded in place and nourished by diverse, perennial food systems. At The Land Institute, Aubrey creates and investigates ways for people to step toward that long-term vision, together. Her favorite workdays feature learning, writing, and collaborating-especially on walk and talk meetings, with colleagues from near and far, up and down rocky prairie hillsides.

This event is presented in partnership with the Mary Riepma Ross Media Arts Center at the University of Nebraska.
