"Our world is in crisis because of the absence of consciousness. And so to whatever degree any one of us, can bring back a small piece of the picture and contribute it to the building of the new paradigm, then we participate in the redemption of the human spirit, and that after all…is what it’s really all about.."
— Terence McKenna

Drop by for a beautiful open-air screening of “Vine of the Soul” at a private residence deep in Topanga Canyon. Dinner, screening and a panel discussion follows.
Dennis McKenna offers some video clips of films he’s participated in. If you haven’t yet contributed to his Kickstarter campaign for “The Brotherhood of the Screaming Abyss”, please consider helping him achieve his goal!

The Evolver Social Movement has launched a new “Evolver Action Alerts” program to activate evolvers with initiatives that promote sustainability and community development while building a more just and egalitarian world.
In the last few weeks, the movement has put out a call to free Chinese artist and human rights activist Ai Wei Wei, who was unjustly detained in Beijing, and has teamed with Transition US and 350.org in their campaign for local communities to grow food, conserve water, and save energy.
Evolver is inviting fellow evolvers to become involved with these initiatives.
If you (or an organization you belong to) have ideas for future “Alerts,” or if you would like to volunteer to help build this program, just email jonathan((at))evolver((dot))net.

Two upcoming screenings of “Vine of the Soul” you won’t want to miss!
