                          Subject: Re: [aoh] Revolution in Madrid<br>
                          <br>
                          Lesley, your question of “why isn’t this hot
                          news” caught my attention.  I been aware that
                          even though many of us are immersed in this
                          kind of work, evolution and even revolution,
                          and have been for some time, it still goes on
                          largely under the radar of the mainstream –
                          but it still goes on, in increasingly more
                          places with increasingly greater numbers of
                          people.  The thirst, hunger and yearning for
                          the depth of conversation that shifts the
                          shape of the world in small and large ways is
                          growing.  It is happening in nooks and
                          crannies all over the globe.  Communities of
                          practice are emerging that are local,
                          translocal, intra- and inter- organizational.
                           The network is still not fully visible to
                          itself and the call for it always grows
                          stronger.  Sharing these stories in this forum
                          and in others that we each belong to fuels the
                          momentum of this work, helps us all be aware
                          of the successes – small and large – that are
                          showing up in the most amazing places and in
                          the most amazing ways and fuels hope,
                          inspiration and greater longing in each of us.
                           It always seems to come back to – host
                          yourself, host others, host the field.  It
                          makes me smile to read these stories and to
                          connect and reconnect to my many good friends
                          in this network all over the world.  In light
                          and love, Kathy<br>

                          Subject: Re: [aoh] Revolution in Madrid<br>
                          <br>
                          Thanks for  the discussion about events in
                          Spain, especially from Linda’s mates in
                          Barcelona.  It’s intriguing and inspiring.  I
                          am also disappointed about having to look so
                          hard to find information in the mainstream
                          media- why isn’t it hot news?  It’s so
                          positive, and such a powerful and meaningful
                          response to the state our world is in.  Young
                          people’s vitality, ideas and hope, for which
                          the global market seems to have no use, are
                          energising public spaces all over Spain, and
                          inspiring citizens of all ages to join in.
                           How great is that.  And not revisiting older,
                          more fixed ideas, say of nationalism or
                          entrenched, ossified political ideologies, but
                          trying to start afresh and work it out
                          together in dialogue and openness.  Wow.<br>
                          <br>
                          It makes me wonder what energy we could
                          realise in the UK if we found ways of engaging
                          with our inherent hopefulness.  I’ve been
                          thinking it would be good to try and network
                          all the talented, committed and experienced
                          public servants who are also being spat out by
                          globalisation and the UK governments abject
                          acceptance of its flawed logic (where growth
                          is the only show in town and so many of the
                          key players seem to be sleepwalking into
                          environmental breakdown).  Just open space to
                          see what ideas emerge?<br>
                          <br>
                          It does seem as if something is stirring, and
                          it’s quite hard not to get excited!  Maybe we
                          can all be part of these changes, by being
                          brave enough to go with the uncertainties, and
                          step into the swirl of events, noticing the
                          most enticing possibilities and putting all of
                          ourselves in those places.<br>

                          Dear all inspired by this we have been talking
                          to mates in Barcelona who are telling us about
                          whats happening – they have talked about a
                          huge self organised human movement coming from
                          the people asking for electoral change.  That
                          the banks don't bank roll elections and spend
                          loads of money on campaigning,that the lists
                          for voting are open for people but not
                          political parties. That people have had enough
                          of the current system and are looking for
                          something better.  Today was a day of local
                          elections<br>
                          <br>
                          People put their ideas forward in assemblies
                          which have been set up on many street corners
                          and plazas – anyone can speak and is listened
                          to, ideas are being harvested in a huge
                          document to send to the government, smaller
                          groups of people are just forming quiet
                          conversation groups all over the city. Its
                          time to change to build a better society

                          peaceful and self organised this movement is.
                           Its not being led by the unions but by the
                          people and by hundreds of volunteers, cooking

                          lang="EN-US"> Carmen they gather around a tree
                          or a stone or so, all sitting in circule speak
                          in - I guess - consciously chosen low voice,
                          those wanting to share a though sign up, no
                          shouting and fierce debate, just simply
                          talking and LISTENING one person after the
                          other...circles of conversations all over...
                          ca. in 15-20 topics, and some more spontaneous
                          gatherings...no brutality, no harshness, no
                          alcohol, no liittering of an immense scale..<br>
                          I just saw one " running away" of those youth
                          who wanted to disturb the gathering with flag
                          from Franco's times, whom these 'revolutionist
                          ' wanted to go away... People of all ages walk
                          in the streets, listen in ( there are no
                          butterflies really,  only  theme keepers and
                          also bumble bees but mostly seriously
                          dedicated young faces deeply caring about
                          themes like energy, climate change, education,
                          politics, daily realities,  etc.<br>
                          <br>
                          I feel so glad to have been excperiencing it
                          and deeply trustful....Agota Ruzsa<br>
