Hi
Due date for the Sept/October Hopedance issue is August 10

PS. there is now a special section for  Listing Permaculture Events in the 
Hopedance Magazine for events happening all over the USA especially 
California events will be listed first when space is limited please send
to Wes Roe lakinroe at silcom.com

The issue will focus on:
CITIZENSHIP, Sustaining Our Activism

topics:

activist burnout
global citizenry
interviews with fabulous citizens in santa barabara and south coast
??)
reviews of very good books and films on this subject
Youth Activism (cal poly's PSA will be represented)
The Soul of a Citizen (Paul Loeb)
Why People Need to Start Saving What They Love
Non-Violent Direct Action methodologies and a critique
More about compassionate listening as a form of mediation for effective
activism
Successful activism: how does it work?
Inspiring stories of activists who can balance their personal lives with
their political lives.
The frequent motivation from going from an ordinary person to becoming a
passionate activist (self-interest, a tragic loss, concern that came from
left-field, therapy, religious/spiritual conversion, drugs, film, book,
speaker, activist???)

why we have become so
fearful/timid of authority/risks and what modalities/therapies/actions can
aid us in overcoming this challenge (did you know that speaking in public is
the number ONE fear in N. American?... not masturbation, not making enough
money, not kissing in public, not eating in public... but SPEAKING IN
PUBLIC!) How can we have a democracy if fear, alcohol, sugar, alienation,
obsessing with our looks, being overworked, watching too much TV... are
dominating our lives?

and much more... Send ideas, topics, reviews, actions, potential interviewees
to
