If Life Wins There Will Be No Losers
Many, many people are feeling the widespread longing for a tenable
alternative to capitalism - an urgent need for new regenerative ways of
living. We feel this need both in our individual lives and in the larger
ways we live together; in neighborhoods, cities, nations. We can't
create a regenerative culture solely by trying to "smash capitalism".
Instead, we need to understand and heal the underlying disease that
generates all such systems of oppression - our separation from life, or
"wetiko," as it was named by the North American Algonquin people. If we
resist only the external effects of wetiko, maybe we can win a victory
here or there, but we can't overcome the system as a whole because this
'opponent' also sits within ourselves. It is from within that we
constantly feed and support this monstrous system.
