Episode 346 We Need To Village

On this week's episode, I explore the use of the word "village" as a noun and a verb. From the African proverb "it takes a village to raise a child" to why we, as a country in crisis, need to "village". We need social connectedness, safe circles, groups and villages, where we can be held and hold others. In our village and as we village, we need to create and use '"alternative economies", based on mutuality and the common good. I also explain how strong communities and living with joy are forms of resistance. May we village with one another, strengthen our communities and truly nurture ourselves and the world. May we unify, collaborate, organize, and village in resistance.
