Descripción

Our world is full of disparities wealth disparity, race disparity, happiness index disparity, etc. History shows that each time these social ails come to a head, things get ugly. Malcontents amass whenever there is an untenable status quo. The current status quo is marked by forever wars, environmental devastation, and stubborn hegemonic forces. And in America and Europe it seems the drums of revolution have been beating for some time. Violence, oppression, and destruction invariably become standard procedure for the equalizers. But those very attributes are the reason everyday people cannot fathom dissent, let alone revolution. Proponents of progressive movements are always asked how things will work in the process and conclusion of revolution. The Buddha & my Black Flag is a primer on how these steps can and should unfold. Nico Armin explains that everything first begins with revolution against hegemonic memes within ones own mind. Once we have our selves in order, then, and only then, can we engender positive change in the world. By standing on the shoulders of giants like Thch Nht Hnh, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Pyotr Kropotkin, and various progressive leaders, he argues from the standpoint of two very misunderstood philosophies, Buddhism and Anarchism. He shows they not only bear surprising compatibility, but real social utility as well. This revelation, he thinks, will pave the way for a new kind of revolution one that modifies and hones social consciousness to bring positive change in the world and an end to war, disparities, and social injustice.
