"Earth Activism: Planting the Seeds of Change"
Global warming, ongoing war, over-development, the energy crisis...What can YOU do about it? In her latest book, The Earth Path, Starhawk addresses the profound spiritual and conceptual disconnect at the root of our environmental destructiveness, and shows how we can reroot our spirits, our politics, and our day-to-day life in deep relationship with the Earth. Come hear Starhawk speak about her work, permaculture, and what it means to be an "Earth Activist." Following her talk will be a facilitated discussion about what YOU can do to get involved, form local community connections, and begin to make a difference here in Lancaster.
Time: 7:00pm
