Join us on June 17th for the local peace economy teach-in at Gaza Summer School!

<[link removed]>RSVP Now! <[link removed]>

Dear John,

Thank you to all those who joined us for the Local Peace Economy meeting last night!

We were so grateful to be able to hear from so many of you about what brought you to be curious about the local peace economy and to explore pivoting from individualism to self-responsibility with you. As we discussed during the call, self-responsibility is how we find our way back to ourselves—the self that is us, our community, and the planet. Self-responsibility is our liberation out of the war economy into the essence of who we are. If you want to revisit the content, or if you weren’t able to join us, you can watch the recording <[link removed]> of last night's call.

Our next meeting will be Wednesday, <[link removed]> June 19th at 5:00pm PT/8:00pm ET.

<[link removed]>RSVP Now! <[link removed]>

Before our next gathering, continue practicing and playing with this pivot. What is it teaching you? Where do you notice yourself being pulled into an individualistic way of thinking and being? How does self-responsibility support the liberation of you and your community?

We'd love to continue to hear about what you're learning! Join the local peace economy listserve to stay connected and continue learning with others in between our bi-weekly calls! You can join the listserve here <[link removed]>.

Mornings at Blackwater
by Mary Oliver

For years, I drank
from Blackwater Pond.
It was flavored with oak leaves and also, no doubt,
the feet of ducks.

And always it assuaged me
from the dry bowl of the very far past.

What I want to say is
that the past is the past,
and the present is what your life is,
and you are capable
of choosing what that will be,
darling citizen.

So come to the pond,
or the river of your imagination,
or the harbor of your longing,

and put your lips to the world.
And live
your life.
