Ngihlala eBerkeley ngeminyaka yawo-70s ngangiyingxenye yeqembu elinamandla eliphefumulelwe leSituationist elalifuna ukubuyisela ukuzithoba kanye nomphakathi kuguquko. Yeqela phambili. Ngifunde iZmag iminyaka engama-20. Eminyakeni eyisithupha edlule ngangifunda incwadi kaChomsky ethi Understanding Power. Ngolunye usuku ekuseni ngavuka ngithukile. Ngacabanga: "Yonke leyo mibono engemihle enginayo mayelana nokuthi kwenzakalani ngempela emhlabeni - yonke iyiqiniso!" Eminyakeni embalwa kamuva ngabhala ukubukeza kwencwadi kaMichael Albert echaza umlando wempilo yakhe ethi Remembering Tomorrow, ngabe sengiya ku-ZMI. Namuhla, ngisebenza ngenjabulo ekwakheni umphakathi (lapha e-LA naku-ZCom) futhi ngenza isikhala sokuziphendulela emsebenzini wethu. Ngibuyisele i-subjectivity kimi! Engikuthanda kakhulu ukusebenzisana nabanye abantu. Ngikwazi futhi ukukhuluma kahle nabantu mayelana namaphrojekthi abo nokuthi bahileleke kukho. Ngithanda kakhulu ukusiza abantu namaqembu ukuthi benze abakwenzayo ngempumelelo nangempumelelo. Ngokwesibonelo, ngingasiza amaqembu ukuba abe nemihlangano engcono, ekhiqizayo; Ngisebenza kahle ekuhleleni amasu nokusebenza ngamabhulokhi; Ngithanda ukuxoxisana mayelana nokwandisa nokuxhumanisa namanye amaqembu. Nginamancoko futhi ngiyakwazi ukusekela abantu ukuze bathole ukuthula kwangaphakathi ngisho noma sihlala sicasulwe ukungalingani okukhulu emphakathini. Sibe neqembu elincane lokufunda lapha e-Los Angeles, futhi manje sihlela ukwanda. Sithanda ukuqala iProjekthi yase-Los Angeles yeNhlangano Ebambe iqhaza. Noma ubani endaweni onentshisekelo kulokhu ngicela angithinte. Sizobe sesiqala ukunikeza izethulo mayelana ne-parecon ne-parsoc kwamanye amaqembu anentshisekelo. Ngiyayemukela imibono yabantu kanye nolwazi lokwenza lokhu.Ngithanda nokubhala ngokuhlanganyela, ikakhulukazi izindatshana. Izihloko engizithakaselayo manje yilezi: 1) Ukungasebenzi kahle konxiwankulu. 2) Ukubhalela ama-80% okungebona abanikazi noma isigaba somxhumanisi. 3) Isigaba somxhumanisi: Yini abangayiyeka, yini abangayizuza emhlabeni weParecon/Parsoc? 4) Ukubhala enye yalezo zincwadi ezincane "zabaqalayo". Lokhu kungase kubizwe ngokuthi Inhlangano Ebamba Iqhaza Yabaqalayo: Yeka ukuthi kuzobukeka kanjani uma sesiqhuba ezethu izimpilo. Ngishayele sibone ukuthi singenzani ndawonye!
