Erosion: Essays of Undoing

Williams discussed her collection of essays titled Erosion in which she sizes up the continuing assaults on America's public lands and the erosion of our commitment to the open space of democracy. These essays are Williams' call to action for blazing a way forward through difficult and dispiriting times. Our undoing is also our becoming.
