“I am not flint or diamond or any of that great hard stuff. If I am stone, I am some kind of shoddy crumbly stuff like sandstone or serpentine, or maybe schist. Or not even stone but clay, or not even clay but mud. And I wish that those who take me for granite would once in a while treat me like mud.” –Ursula K Le Guin

Join an open study group on nonhuman agencies and stony resistance, led by artist Rowan Lear.
