This Sunday's Earthchxrch, The Fabulous Unknown


Poster by Savitri D

On Sunday January 14th we will begin again a long trail of Sundays toward the Fabulous Unknown.  Welcome to the Earthchxrch.  We gather at 5pm at 36 Ave C Loisaida Ave at 3rd Street in the East Village.

 

If we are making a new kind of activism for the Earth, we will have to let go of the hammerlock of Information and consider what we call The Fabulous Unknown.  The 70% of all the objects, bodies, concrete and dogshit that we consider "reality" is in fact unidentified and named by the scientists "dark energy" or "dark matter."  The colonial habit of the Heart of Darkness….

 

If we are walking into the 6th Extinction with ideas for making change, then we will have a much different experience in the ordinary moment.  Our revolutionary approach to the corrupt and the fearful will have life and death in it, like a forest, like an alpine meadow, like a coral reef.  We won't be at rally and march and rally and march - we will be emissaries, deliverers of messages from another world; that is, this world, which we failed to notice or name, but it's fabulous.  How far do we have to dance to get back to Direct Action?  It's not measured in miles.
