The Dream
In 1963, Martin Luther King gave his “I Have a Dream” speech. What he asked for should not have been a far reach. Dr. King was rather unique And boy did he like to speak He spoke on equality and racism And spread his message through activism He was one of the most prominent activists during the Civil...

"power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love." Win/Lose power without win/win love is lose/lose reckless and abusive, And win/win love without win/win power is sentimental and anemic. Power at our best is love cooperatively implementing win/win healing justice, And EarthJustice at our healthiest and best is power win/win correcting everything that...

Mlk Way Today
As we look back on the path blazed by Jr MLK. Seeing the progress wondering what he’d say. The work has begun and the game changed. But there’s lots more minds to be rearranged. People wear blinders, seeing black and white. Naïve to all the many shades in our plain sight. Fifty shades of grey...

Mlk Day
On MLK Day, let’s reflect On protests made in peace, For choosing who we would elect Should not require police. Remember marching through the streets? Our weapons were our chants. We had no Facebook, had no tweets And yet we took a stance. When Martin Luther King was here, We listened as a crowd Within a civil atmosphere; No violence allowed. If King were somehow back today To...

I have heard almost nothing about New Year Resolutions this pandemic year; Although personal sound waves are filled replete with incomplete invitations to take better health care of personal and social and economic and democratic and public and green climate nonviolent communication wealth optimization As we move post-millennially and relentlessly, perhaps as inevitably as any self-fulfilling NewYear resolute expectation, standing win/win apart from ambiguous anticipation thoughts with anxious feelings, foreboding fore-tidings, Right/Left affective/cognitive dissonance; fading resonance.

Premium Member A Climate of Integration
Societies, religious and secular, nation-states, corporations, extended families, tribes, colonies, property owners, owned properties are caught in, invested in, an inescapable network of climate mutuality, cooperativity, multicultural communion, tie-dyed, camouflaged in a single Earth habitat of green-blue spectral destiny rhapsody rapture. Climate injustice anywhere is a threat to health and justice and peace everywhere. There are some climates in our social political economic racist system to which all EarthDwellers ought to be maladjusted divested struggling to breathe free, to dream expansively inclusively theo- and ego- and eco-logically. Internal and external climates of...
