How to Use Consensus Democracy: NYGA.org Demonstrates from the #OWS protests

Consensus Democracy - How do the Occupy Wall Street protesters reach decisions in a very diverse group? 

We filmed at the Occupy Wall Street protests recently. One of the wonderful things to emerge in these protests has been the Consensus Democracy approach: broad, highly inclusive, community-focused and introspective - everyone has a voice. This form of decision-making is similar to older forms - for example, Quaker Letters - used to find central commonalities among diverse groups.

Consensus Democracy is very powerful. When decisions are reached, you know that the vast majority agree; and that essentially all in the group will accept the result. There is a lot of listening required: deeply understanding the others' points of view and priorities - good skills for us to re-learn now, especially in U.S. politics!

New Mexico is one of the hottest, driest States in the US. Because of global warming, it is getting a lot hotter, a lot drier.

Especially in the United States, we need to pass bold, comprehensive clean energy and climate legislation. 1Sky.org is leading in the US - join the movement. Take action. Make history, especially for the already-dry southwestern US, where conditions are worsening. In Mexico City this year, the United Nations COP16 event will try to extent this work to a global treaty

Ask your freinds and other citizens to take action.

Educate yourself.

Motivate yourself.

Change the world.

Big Projects

We have collaborated on several big projects. Many more will come.

We met Rhetta Morgan at the Common Ground services in Bala Cynwyd, near Philadelphia.

She is truly an instrument of love, bringing and singing a new vision for human relationships, healing and devotion. Rhetta has the remarkable ability to sing a-Capella, a vision of the future that is so moving that audiences are brought to tears - as we have been.

Please experience a corner of this remarkable woman's presence.
