The Land Knows the Way: Eco-Social Insights for Liberation is a collection of political medicines - gathered and gleaned from six decades of trickster art and activism, the long history of peoples' movements, and the deep rhythms of our planet's ecology.

Produktbeschreibung
The Land Knows the Way: Eco-Social Insights for Liberation is a collection of political medicines - gathered and gleaned from six decades of trickster art and activism, the long history of peoples' movements, and the deep rhythms of our planet's ecology. It offers ways to creatively and effectively respond to living in times that are, on the one hand, unprecedented and unique, and on the other, part of longstanding and familiar historical cycles. If we are to learn from what history and ecology have to teach us, we need to become reacquainted with both. But don't expect a road map. From the preface:

"There's no map with our route marked out for us. Maps are useful instruments. They are like a snapshot of the lay of the land at a moment in time. But in a landscape constantly shifting, they are not enough. Effective strategies do not emerge from certainties, but from attentiveness. We need to be able to read the land-in its natural, social, and historical dimensions-sense changes in wind direction, identify opportunities and spot hidden dangers."

Autorenporträt
Ricardo Levins Morales is an artist and organizer based in Minneapolis. He uses his art and writing as a form of political medicine to support individual and collective healing from the injuries and ongoing reality of oppression. Born into the anti-colonial movement in his native Puerto Rico, Ricardo was drawn into activism in Chicago when his family moved there in 1967. He left high school early and worked in various industries, and over time began to use his art as part of his movement work. This activism has included support work for the Black Panthers and Young Lords and participating in or acting in solidarity with farmers, environmental, labor, racial justice, antiwar and other struggles for peoples empowerment. Ricardo was a founding member of the Northland Poster Collective (1979-2009), and today offers his artwork, writing, and wisdom via RLM Art Studio, a union shop based in Minneapolis and online at RLMArtStudio.com. His work is widely used by grassroots movements, organizations and communities.
