Lynn Margulis fought the male establishment and, through her persistence,
triumphed. As a young scientist in the 1960s, Margulis was ridiculed when she
articulated a theory that symbiosis was a key driver of evolution. Instead of
the mechanistic view that life evolved solely through random genetic mutations
and competition, she presented a symbiotic narrative in which bacteria joined
together to create the complex cells that formed animals, plants, and all other
organisms. </span></font><span style="color:black"><font face="Calibri">The idea that all of life is deeply interconnected and
collaborative has radical implications for how we look at and understand our
selves, our species, our relationships, our kin, sex, death, resilience, adaptability, regenerativity, ecology, evolution, our changing environment and our climate.</font></span></p>
