LIVE WEB CAM Q & A with author DERRICK JENSEN
ACT 21 – A COMMUNITY TALKS
– FEB 3rd at 7PM / LIVE WEB CAM Q & A with author DERRICK JENSEN
DERRICK JENSEN, author of ‘What We Leave Behind’, ‘ A Language Older Than Words’, ‘ Endgame 1 and 2′, ‘The Culture of Make Believe’ and ‘ Welcome to the Machine’.
“What We Leave Behind” …If we are not responsible for what we leave behind, then who is ? Join author, Derrick Jensen, live from California via Web conferencing for a one hour of Questions and Answers. The second hour will be an internal town hall discussion of the topic and other issues from his books on environment and culture.
Derrick Jensen is a leading voice of cultural dissent. He explores the nature of injustice, how civilizations devastate the natural world, and how human beings retreat into denial at the destruction of the planet. His work examines the central question, “If the destruction of the natural world isn’t making us happy, then why are we doing it?”
Rather than proposing easy answers, Jensen traces the roots of the culture’s pathology and finds the places where they intertwine, revealing fresh and startling connections.
