Publisher's Summary
It's time to admit that we, the people of this planet, have lost faith in conventional tactics for maintaining order in the world. The time-tattered trio—violence, war, and self-serving politicians—have only made things worse. More importantly, we've lost faith in ourselves and the essential goodness of human nature.
"This Mere Existence: Motivation and Strategies for Restoring Human Rights" seeks to reaffirm our evolutionary inclination to empathy and reciprocal altruism, strives to motivate people for the fight by documenting the myriad ways immoral, powerful people have suppressed and denied human rights to this very day, and introduces strategies for engaging the powers that be in a nonviolent struggle to reclaim and restore the rights and freedoms we inherit at birth but have seldom been able to enjoy.
This book is a celebration of the human potential to turn things around. If we reclaim our connection to each other, we can reclaim the rights we've been denied for so very long.
