New Years Day: I commit to taking actions every day that will make the world a place future generations of all species will want to inherit.
Please listen to this powerful New Years’ message from the Earth, delivered through the Kogi of Colombia. thefountain.earth/mother/
Now in the Christmas—New Years time warp is a good opportunity to reflect on what we each will do in this coming year. Please join me in setting a destination to a more sustainable, just, peaceful world. Daily action. I commit to writing, speaking out, joining movements. You?
All life is energy — and personal and global transformation occurs by altering energy.
On Native American Heritage Day, we honor how Native Americans, spanning from South to North America, have led movements for environmental preservation and social justice, teaching us unity and action. Today, celebrate their wisdom and commit daily to learn from their example.
So much to dive into this month! I’m back home and ready for November’s live webinar series on Indigenous wisdom — a critical path forward when the #StatusQuo is still failing us. Lean more at johnperkins.org/onlinecourse
I'm on beutiful Corfu Greece -- where the old fortress reminds us that we humans have a violent, greedy history of creating a Death Economy based on warfare and materialistic greed. Time to embrace the beauty of the wonderful planet that is our home and love it and all life!
I write about China’s failures and successes around the world in my latest book, the 3rd in the Confessions of an Economic Hit Man trilogy. Here’s a great example of the way one of China's “successes” has led to tragic failure. washingtonpost.com/world/interact…
I'm in Athens where ancient Greeks built magnificent buildings like the Parthenon atop the Acropolis. And they also worshiped Gaia, the Mother of All Life -- just as contemporary Indigenous people do. Time to Re-Member this ancient wisdom. Learn more at johnperkins.org/onlinecourse
I'm in Bath Eng on my way to participate in the Local Futures Summit in Bristol. Visiting the ancient Roman baths in Bath, I'm reminded of how empires always collapse. Hmmm, history seems to repeat itself!
Some of the worst things in history have been done by people who said they were trying to do "good." We need to be careful of our actions as they have far-reaching consequences for our world.
Happy Juneteenth -- a day to celebrate the emancipation of slavery in the US and also make a commitment to ending the ways we continue to support various forms of slavery, including debt slavery, at home and around the world. #Juneteenth2023
The goal of domination is cloaked in a critical factor: the perception that those being dominated are receiving benefits.
Fear and debt. The two most powerful tools of empire.
We can all take different paths – ones that give us each personal satisfaction; when we all head in the same direction, toward a Life Economy, we change our lives and the world.
We've convinced ourselves that running the race to have greater wealth and power will make us happy, but we're now waking up to these lies and realizing that pursuing peace and spiritual prosperity for the world is the true answer to happiness. Our leaders need to wake up, too.
Young people everywhere are demanding authenticity and freedom instead of material compensation. Their value system is going to change the world. Let's help them rise up and be the leaders of the future. #LifeEconomy
Spotted @flySFO - Confessions of an Economic Hit man, Third Edition 🌏🌎
Georgia police are still hiding the names of the cops who pumped 13 bullets into climate activist Manuel Terán in a killing that has many telltale signs of an execution. What else is the @GBI_GA hiding? This happened in January. So where are the names? Where are the videos?

I read the 2nd Edition. When was the 3rd Edition published?
"Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, 3rd Edition" describes three waves of economic hitmen—highly paid professionals that use debt and fear to control natural resources in developing countries on behalf of American corporations. I should know. I was an economic hitman.
@vercingetorics Comin' at ya 28 February 2023 on Amazon or, presumably, at a fine online or book store near you sometime soon after that.
