POLITICS OF THE HEARTNonviolence in an Age of Atrocity - Psychedelic Activism to End WarWhat happens when theatre collides with revolution-when poetry ignites politics and conscience refuses silence? Politics of the Heart is a manifesto disguised as performance-part memoir, part spoken-word theatre, part psychedelic sermon on love and defiance in an age of annihilation. It asks the most intimate of political questions: What does it mean to stay awake and human when the world itself seems addicted to destruction?

POLITICS OF THE HEARTNonviolence in an Age of Atrocity - Psychedelic Activism to End WarWhat happens when theatre collides with revolution-when poetry ignites politics and conscience refuses silence? Politics of the Heart is a manifesto disguised as performance-part memoir, part spoken-word theatre, part psychedelic sermon on love and defiance in an age of annihilation. It asks the most intimate of political questions: What does it mean to stay awake and human when the world itself seems addicted to destruction? In late 2025, in a small studio in Haʻikū, Maui, author and spoken-word artist Alan Clements performed what he called "a literary feature film of conscience and resistance." This book is the script, the meditation, and the moral aftermath of that night-a call to transform politics into a living practice of empathy, clarity, and awakening. Alongside two companion volumes, it completes a trilogy of conscience and revolution: - Conversation with a Dictator: A Challenge to the Authoritarian Assault-an imagined dialogue with Burma's ruling general, dissecting the psychology of tyranny.- Unsilenced: Aung San Suu Kyi - Conversations from a Myanmar Prison-a philosophical and spiritual meditation resurrecting the voice of Burma's imprisoned democracy leader. Together, these works form a single architecture of defiance-a literature of resistance born from decades of witnessing dictatorship, war, and the long, uneven struggle for freedom.A former Buddhist monk, war journalist, and lifelong ally of Burma's democracy movement, Clements distills his decades of activism and contemplative practice into a blazing invocation: Use your freedom. Use it to speak. Use it to act. Use it to love when hatred is demanded. Use it to stop the killing.Politics of the Heart is not neutral. It is a flare against the darkness-a prayer of defiance-an uprising of the spirit calling humanity to awaken while there is still time. It dares to articulate a new form of global politik-one that fuses empathy, mindful intelligence, and the essence of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights: an intelligence of interbeing in which dignity, conscience, and freedom are understood as inherent to all beings.
