Join us for the launch of the 20th anniversary edition of Random Kindness and Senseless Acts of Beauty, with a Foreword by Desmond Tutu, and for a community dialogue on building Climate Justice and Just Resilience. M. Paloma Pavel and Carl Anthony (co-founders of Breakthrough Communities) are traveling from California to New York to host this event for UN Climate Week. Guests include Lynne Elizabeth of New Village Press, more to be announced.
M. Paloma Pavel brings a multimedia presentation on the Random Kindness Community Resilience Project, an inspiration and resource for community engagement, participatory planning and community organizing. The message in Random Kindness is an urgent call to action: in an age of climate crisis, we must work together to create the world we want to live in--a world based on sustainability with justice.
Carl Anthony invites us all into the deep philosophical foundations of the Climate Justice movement, described in his forthcoming publication, The Earth, The City, and the Hidden Narrative of Race. Carl connects struggles for social justice with the Universe Story, creating a new story for our time.
Continue on to the Climate Action Rally afterwards, 12:00 pm to 7:00 pm at the New School Auditorium, 66 West 12th Street.

Make new earth grow beneath our feet.
