Change Your Thinking – Change Your World.

Are you deeply concerned about the climate crisis and about the growing social and economic inequalities that we see deepening around us?  Do you feel overwhelmed and powerless to do anything about it?  We are again offering an eight-week course that equips people with the tools to think differently about how to tackle these issues and empower the agency that each of us possesses. By participating in the courses, you become part of the growing community of people at Common Earth who are collectively trying to remove the barriers that currently prevent us from moving to a post-carbon caring society.

Our sessions will be held on Mondays and Wednesdays April 10th – May 31st.  The sessions will be offered at the following times (all Eastern):

The ICA Global Archives Team is holding its next sojourn 16-30 July 2023.

Results of two 2022 sojourns:

• In July the archives of ICAs in Africa were scanned and a Memorials page was launched on the website to celebrate the lives of colleagues.

• Since the July sojourn, the Archives has been indebted to Ed Feldmanis for his commitment to scan selected files into PDFs (approximately 12 hours a week). After files are scanned, Wendell Refior turns the PDFs into links for adding to the Archives website. Alan Gammel and myself then add the links to the website.

• In December colleagues revisited Uptown Chicago community work, six projects in Latin America, and the India files.

Our focus in July 2023 will be on the Global Research Assemblies and Councils (1966-2012) that shaped the work of the EI/ICA over the years. As always there may be other passions arise for locating other archive gems for the website.

If you are interested in participating in the sojourn – or some of the days within the two weeks – please call or text Karen Snyder at 312.758.2551.
