The con-men and con-women look in at us and claim our insides. They introduce us to our own interior, our identity is their property. THIS ARRANGEMENT WILL KEEP US MODERATE, UNABLE TO CHALLENGE THE POISONERS. THE MASS EXTINCTION OF NATURAL LIFE
It's tricky. When 10,000 products try to hardsell you every day, promising happiness, sex, wealth, health and beauty, but those products are secretly polluting the Earth creating impossible wind and waves, fire and floods... And the answer to t
The history of movements is felt deeply in Neil's songs, in "Four Dead in Ohio" and the cracking whip in "Southern Man", the vulnerability of "Comes a Time" and "Searching for a Heart of Gold" and the relentless rock of Crazy Horse when it brea
The powerful thing about this experiment is that we are talking directly to people about the Earth’s crisis. It’s not graphics, mass mailings, or social media’s pixels. In the first three shows the choir and I played to 21,000 people. Our job
Beatles, Panthers, Standing Rock, David Graeber, Act-Up, Earth First, XR. Today as we prepare to tour with Neil Young, we find ourselves wondering: Can a famous activist or group make change on the level that the Earth needs? Or is Consumer Soc
“There must be more to life!” was the cry as the new movement toward Earth-friendly Love took root in a White Christian Nationalist enclave of rural Texas. Worshippers were stranded with their Bibles as the mass of Trumpers seemed to veer off d
The Earth is the protester now. We don't know how to join her and - we must. The consume-life economy will oppose any effort to break out of the virtual world of American-style capitalism. We are all the natural disaster. We are inside the tsun
It is clearly a moment for a new approach to defending the Earth. All manner of protests can be absorbed by the police and their corporation sponsors. Control of the press, shadow-banning of social media, the constant presence of aggressive mar
Always invite the Earth - the living being who creates living beings that become a part of it - to whatever event you are hosting. If you are negotiating with New York City about what to do with the 10,000 migrants arriving each month, and you
Hosted by Reverend Billy and Savitri D, EARTH RIOT is a comedy-infused, music-filled exploration of the planet’s Sixth Extinction. Made by "Earth-loving urban activists" from The Church of Stop Shopping, this podcast inspires listeners to embra
We find kindness in the strangest places. Kindness is confusing to the fearful; mistaken for crime by politicians. Kindness has power, after all, that cannot be controlled. Kindness is not a static quality; it is always in motion as people touc
In our current time in history, with the chaos of civil societies, the emergence of strong man governments and toxic capitalism and the resulting accelerating climate violence, we notice in our work at the Earthchxrch that there is a searching
Artists show the way: Coltrane and Ginsberg and Levitt and Annie Sprinkle and Bimbo Rivas and Basquiat and Keith Haring... they made new personal worlds in order to give themselves a way to inhabit on this Earth, and change people around them w
And the first wave of this mass extinction has hit New York. Thousands upon thousands of humans in busses and planes and trains and cars, with bundles and backpacks and not-warm-enough-clothes. What they call the extinction is actually sped up
We have made common journey to find each other in the intensity of this moment that we meet. We get whole-body relief, that they are here, pouring out their trust and we reply in kind. And quickly after that, a pact of mutual loyalty. What can
The scripted fictions - little staged videos - depicting young migrants fighting police and shoplifting in Times Square, and then the spewing of hate from police/governor/mayor right on cue... All this drives us underground. We'll be non-off
The fearful hate retreats in the face of the vision of freedom for all, especially for the people of the global south who have suffered at the hands of White Nationalist Neo-Liberal Capitalism.At the Earthchxrch we welcome the Newest New York
A hard-right Christian punched my lights out while I was preaching about Peace. But evil is dynamic. It moves. Evil flows in a river of happenstance and purpose and pain and laughter. Fearful fascists can be looked in the eye and appealed to. T
He recently said “The flood of immigrants coming here - will destroy New York City. And it’s coming to a neighborhood near you.” Oh, really? And are they druggies and rapists?The migration, 200,000 souls in NYC in the last year and a half, is
Since the Earth's crisis gives us months or maybe years, gradualism is a faster kind of suicide. Every one of our prayers needs to be like an ambulance, flooring it right at the emergency. Scientists say that most of reality is a whirlwind of s
The songs of the new release, Before and After, give us Love that we can use. The wars and mass extinction seem to mock the tenderness of Love, but the message is simple-- Love is the only way to survive.Working with his collaborator Lou Adle
This year, we are the Earth. We're feeling good about the activism we have tried, but the Earth creates our direct action with the radical example of the Evolution of Species. And that is a Hell of Fierce Thing. We will fly over, dig under, cam
You have to spike your mind with science fiction, to get Big Oil's Evil. The super-rich are doing with superstorms and wildfires what the Israelis are doing with American bombs. COP28 confirms it. The Oilies believe that they can steer the pl
