    Dreams of My Father

    I am now approaching my 70th birthday and am slowing down. My body is slower, my brain is slower (but not much), my work is slower - only 1 days a week. BUT - I am still trying to work out what I really want to do although the one thing I do know is that I still want to change the world! There is a way of treating the Earth and its inhabitants in a better, fairer, simpler and kinder manner but it's frustrating trying to convince others. I am an advocate of peace and non-violence. Hopefully, my 3 kids will carry on this older guy's views. ChomskyĀ , Pilger and Monbiot are the heroes. Ā

    The Wind Cries Freedom: An Oral History of the Next American Revolution, by Michael Albert

    THE WIND CRIES FREEDOM

    The Wind Cries Freedom, the new book from Z co-founder Michael Albert, is a sweeping oral history of a future American revolution.

    Through thirty interconnected chapters, it draws out the strategies, failures, turning points, and hard-won wisdom of a movement that called itself the Revolutionary Participatory Society. These are not the polished memoirs of politicians: they are the unfiltered accounts of people who organized in neighborhoods, hospitals, universities, stadiums, courthouses, and places of worship, and kept a shared vision alive through cynicism and exhaustion.

    The result is speculative political fiction that reads like history: messy, human, and quietly hopeful in the way that only real experience and long thought can produce.

    Get your copy and peruse more features on the book’s website below.

    “Read it, argue with it, but don’t look away. The future it recalls is one we must still fight to deserve.”

    Yanis Varoufakis

    “The most unusual and intriguing combination of prophecy, manifesto, and movement building manual that I have ever encountered.”

    Bill Fletcher Junior

    “This work fills a huge gap in our social movement literature.”

    Cynthia Peters

    DOES Z'S SURVIVAL MATTER?

    You keep coming back for a reason: serious political analysis, movement reporting, and debate beyond the priorities of corporate media. Today, Z is in a precarious financial position. If Z is part of how you understand the world, help keep it going. The readers who give monthly are the reason this work survives between fundraisers.

    Z is in the most precarious financial position in its history.

    Z is a place to think beyond the limits of the present.

    For decades, Z has brought together political analysis, movement reporting, debate, and visions of a different future from writers and activists around the world. That work is more than journalism. It is movement infrastructure: movements need places to develop ideas, test arguments, learn from experience, and imagine what comes next.

    In the first two days of this fundraiser, 19 donors and 8 new monthly sustainers stepped up. Help us reach 1,000 donors who keep Z independent, for everyone.

    For decades, Z has published the analysis, debate, and visions movements need, free of paywalls, ads, and billionaire owners. If that work should continue, Z needs your support now.
