Dancing In The Shadow Of Tyranny: An Activist's Guide To Inner Disarmament - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Dancing in the Shadow of Tyranny is a moving social testament for our times. The author, Neriah Lothamer, has been involved in many forms of activism, from the Kent State student protests to the Vietnam war, to the most recent marches opposing the Iraq war. He has videotaped and documented the outrage felt by many activists.What makes this book unique is that Lothamer does not simply turn the searchlight on corporate corruption and government folly. He turns an equally probing eye on himself. He asks, where do the roots of such social behavior lie, and he is shocked to find echoes of it resounding in his own behavior, toward his children, his wife, his business partners. He realizes that externalizing such behavior in order to confront it in the other may be little more than a distraction from the work at hand: confronting the inner bully and tyrant. Written in deeply moving and lyrical prose-sometimes searing, sometimes singing-Lothamer's moving story of heartbreak and radical inner reconstuction is a full of insights and compelling contemporary wisdom.
