Launch of Geez #43: Collectivity.

Pop culture loves the hero, the over-achieving, all-conquering success story of one individual against all odds.

But in the face of today’s society-wide problems — increasing oil extraction, police brutality, precarious labour, violence against women, racial profiling, dehumanizing technophilia — it feels both natural and necessary to reach out to others for support, to rely on friends and neighbours as a necessity to accomplish change.

Join us as we launch the next issue of Geez magazine where we tackle the topic of collectivity, examining what it means to choose community in a society that prioritizes individuality. Guest speaker and local community advocate Kelly Bernardin-Dvorak will share her thoughts on collective reconciliation.

About Geez magazine: For over 10 years, we have promoted contemplative cultural resistance in quarterly print form. We’ve set up camp in the outback of the spiritual commons. A bustling spot for the over-churched, out-churched, un-churched and maybe even the un-churchable. A location just beyond boring bitterness. A place for wannabe contemplatives, front-line world-changers and restless cranks. A place where the moon shines quiet, instinct runs mythic and belief rides a bike (or at least sits on the couch entertaining the possibility).
