Book Description
Manifestos, Reinventions & Declarations is a commentary on this unprecedented moment in history. This is a book about Now. The New Now we're living in and going through. We're living in a time when a day can feel like it goes on forever. And since billions of us are going through the same experience at the exact same moment in history, we can all be shifting the world culture together. "Brilliant book that is both a call to action and a road map to more effective living." - Renowned Poet, Gary Lemons With a global pandemic rolling across and ravaging our land, we can more easily understand how historic and pre-historic events actually happened. Now, with deeply embedded wrongheaded cultural norms being pushed against as never before, we can also understand how societal shifts sometimes happened in past centuries, within months, days, or hours, or when a tipping point was finally reached. Collectively, in the back of our minds, a part of us knew a massive shift could or would eventually happen. We've all been dreaming of, or expecting some type of change to happen. Although we weren't expecting anything as drastic and cultural/world shifting as what did happen. "This urgent appeal echoes and builds on what John Lennon asked us to do - imagine a better world. With passion, conviction, and humor this interwoven collection of essays and manifestos urges us to exercise our creative impulses to reinvent ourselves and the world. Feeling overwhelmed and downhearted? Ready to be uplifted? Give this book a read, and begin living what the authors call the "new now." - Randy, Olympia, WA We all want to change our own lives for the better, and now it truly feels like it should also include the lives of others. Without time to plan for this, it felt like it happened in an instant. So, if anyone needed any proof, yes, we are definitely all one. If we believe we possess the power to change ourselves, then the same has to be true for positively shifting the culture. Transforming our culture into a more empathetic, generous, and tolerant culture is worth the effort. And this is the ideal historic moment to do so. If not now, when?
