The video begins thirty seconds into the roundtable, so don't worry: you miss only the very first point, which was Amanda Beech weaving all the talks together. Her point was to talk about things that were bigger, vaster than the human.
“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris
