A Night with Derrick Jensen

Tue, Mar 28
7:00 PM-9:00 PM
$5-20.00 sliding scale. A Benefit for CA Anarchist Prisoner Solidarity

Derrick Jensen is an activist, author, small farmer, bee-keeper,
teacher,
and philosopher. His acclaimed book, A Language Older Than Words, has
been
said to accomplish the rare feat of both breaking and mending the
reader's
heart, as well as energizing the mind.

A typical Jensen event is multidimensional and feels a bit like
traveling
beneath the earth among tree roots, as they twist their way into soil,
rock, river beds and accompany fish, insects, discarded tires,
cellophane
wrappers, animal minds, history, and human instinct on strange and
interlocking journey.

Jensen explores the nature of injustice, of what civilizations do to the
natural world and how, in the face of the resulting horror that is
one of
the all too apparent consequences of grave injustice, civilized human
beings create intricate systems of denial, silence, abnegation,
deception
and self-hatred to keep it at bay.
