How Beautiful We Were by Imbolo Mbue tells the story of a fictional African village called Kosawa as it fights for environmental justice with the American oil company Pexton. While this is a work of fiction, it contains many parallels to modern climate stories, and I believe it has valuable lessons for us as we face the climate emergency. → Buy How Beautiful We Were on Bookshop from $25.76*: https://bookshop.org/a/140/9780593132425 Stories for Earth: Transcript: https://storiesforearth.com/2021/08/24/how-beautiful-we-were-imbolo-mbue/ Support us through Patreon or a one-time donation: https://storiesforearth.com/support-us/ Subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGmH6FisTges9AzQlfbg-hg Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/stories4earth Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/storiesforearth/ *Affiliate link.
