2 The death of business as usual and the Great Turning.
We won't get to the Great Turning without the passing of our current system. We need to mourn it, gather the things we want to take with us and prepare for its death. There is so much we have to let go of, so many stories that center humans in all things. There will be no gentle passing into a new mode of human existence.

The heart of all social transformation.
Thank you for carrying on the legacy of Joanna's work in such a meaningful way, Adriana.
