REVOLUTION
What if you were part of a revolution and didn't even know it? Not an innocent bystander but as a soldier for the revolutionary forces engaged in a battle to “separate that, which is contingent on “modern life” from what is essential to human society and to Life itself.” Could an army of the ignorant and humble undermine the excesses of power and privilege? Could civilization, as we know it be defeated by the force of humanity?
"Somewhere in the last decades of the 20th Century something unusual began to occur. At the height of human “progress”, in the full flower of technology, and at the pinnacle of economic and material success, a small trickle of people began to “drop out”. They were not giving-up on the world—on the contrary they were making immense efforts to seek out new, more authentic connections with it. A revolution had begun, without a doubt, but one devoid of leaders or fanfare or conditions; a simple, silent revolt led by thousands of people in dozens of countries, hardly any of them knowing that their other fellow revolutionaries even existed."
A. J. Muste "There is no way to peace. Peace is the way"
