Our Lives, Our Way

                This video suggests a way that we can live better. It is a way, not the way. It can be our way.There is plenty of choice. We can use our wisdom, intelligence, beliefs, feelings and needs to choose as best we can. We can take care of ourselves as we will.  Our way of life is up to us. An excellent early step is to show up. To show up we may find it useful to stand up. Another important step, one suggested on this video, is to realize usually that resisting others is not productive, violence is particular not productive. 

                For example, when we do not like their food, we can co-operate to get the best food we can. We do not have to by food we do not want or like. We can refuse to buy their food. We do not have to do without. Think about it if you wish. If  you do so, you might also consider what it means to show up. 

Bernie Sanders & Robert Reich discuss how we defeat Republicans' horrid ...

They are talking about what is being done to us right now. When we refuse to do, we are done. Done to. Not ye finished off. When we refuse to govern ourselves, we are at he mercy of those willing to do so.  Find out what social organization is. We need organization. We are the potential grassroots. If we stay in the seed bag, we do not grow. Money is not a good excuse.

Conversations with History: Glenn Greenwald

We can organize to form our nexus for doing. We can organize to form a sort of useful institution.
We can consider how to effective protect our nexus. We can practice what we want and learn by doing.   Talking over what we are doing until enough of us are on the same page is vital. We will need an exceptional  understanding of our common aims. We will need great sources of learning.  We will need duplicate sources of information.  We will need to do that which we want to be.   I like liberty, justice, honesty, and democracy.                                                                                                                                       

Noam Chomsky - How Do We Fight Back?

Learn, educate yourself, teach, organize, act. Learn of the successful actions of earlier movements. Consider your passions.

Eric Liu, "You're More Powerful Than You Think"

Organize. learn. organize,

teach and organize. Listen. learn, and organize. Invite another to join you. Learn how to be an effective citizen. Expand the arena. Change the story. Join with others. Good for you for thinking and learning.
