As we move into a New Year and the hopes that come with it, is anything new and hopeful emerging in American politics? The answer is no and yes. Many of our political leaders continue to be more responsive to the will of Big Money than to the will of We the People. But among us, theres growing awareness that we and we alone can reclaim a government of the people, by the people, for the people. That reclaiming begins as we learn to talk with each other across our lines of political difference. Big Moneys divide and conquer tactics are aimed at robbing us of our citizen power. Will they succeed? Its in our hands... A few months ago, the New York Times published an interview with me about my book, Healing the Heart of Democracy (HHD). If you care about these things as much as I do—and I imagine you do—please check out the link below and share it with your friends. HHD came out as a hardbound in 2011. Now its out in paperback with an updated Intro and Discussion Guide—which includes 40 brief videos to help spark conversation. If you own the hardbound, you can get the Guide and the videos FREE at tinyurl/ojshaqu. I believe in the gift economy! HHD is easily available at Amazon tinyurl/k4vfzpp and at Independent Bookstores across the country tinyurl/cgdlgno. Lets do what we can to make 2015 a Happy New Year in our political as well as our personal lives!
