Holy what what- my friend Tracy Morgan sent me this ages ago, just watching now at the perfect moment. Watch Grace Lee Boggs and be ENCOURAGED. W O W. 99 years old, born in Rhode Island, raised in Queens then settled in Detroit, labor organizer, lifelong activist, walked w MLK, so much brilliance - plz watch! Some asst gems: the NEW dream is bringing the neighbor back into the hood we have to grow our souls not just our economy people will celebrate detroit for what were creating, a whole new way of life...people growing food for themselves people taking charge of their neighborhoods people thinking about safety in terms of neighborliness rather than in terms of police, a whole new culture that is as culturally important as the transition from hunting and gathering to agriculture, and from agriculture to industry a new concept of revolution is overdue we are on the threshold, already in the midst of a kind of radical spiritual activism, a moral imagination thats really necessary for this period and this one EVERY CRISIS IS BOTH A DANGER AND AN OPPORTUNITY #SAYTHAT
