Party for a Future ..REVOLUTION BOOKS on 26 th St is closing ( same old same old RENT TOO HIGH) BUT they are raising money to relocate! going out with a HUGE sale and live MUSIC party

Jim Fouratt YES we keep losing book stores . places where ideas and people can collide in a safe place to be challenged and build community .. Why I try as best I can to support three bookstores in my 'hood...and now I have learned that REVOLUTION BOOKS is closing, .priced out of their current location... PLEASE stop by and buy some books now on sale ..and find out how you can keep the spirit of the bookstore alive in a different location...NOW MORE THAN EVER we need a politically engaged bookstore that puts ideas into practice and knows that culture and politics are not in opposition. ... and Burnt Sugar is a wonder to hear

Going

Weekend to Raise the Funds to Save and Move Revolution Books

today at 12:00pm ...Burnt Sugar tonight ...the last performance ever at 26th Street

146 W 26th St, New York, New York 10001

Praxis, my dear, is the only real way to succeed in the culture war.

Praxis, my dear, is the only real way to succeed in the culture war.
Yes indeed there is a culture war going .. but you know that if you have arrived here. We suggest that you put theory into practice by taking virtual you and virtual ideas into the reality of real live physical and cognitive action.

MEANING: get up and out of your chair and do something physical in real time. OCCUPY YOUR BODY. Be physical.

The fuel is love, compassion and curiosity. Anger is a result of the repression of fear and distances one from compassionate change ... do the Che Che cha cha cha .. or if you prefer the Stiegler tango! or the Shulamith Firestone death metal raga!

PRAXIS is the action of putting into practice the thoughts, theories and desires running through your bio-magnetic, nerve sensitive self. Reality propelled by the friction of input/output.

Damn it, it should be fun !

I will share with you my interaction in the real world and the theoretical world and invite you to do the same.

Politics is an everyday affair. Politics is how we live our lives Every action or non-action we do is a political act. Culture is the expression of desire in public interactive way.

So jump in please.

Join me in participating in life. Making change starts with self and ripples out. Pop culture is where I live ..not in some isolated, white tower, postmodern, distancing intellectual thought or theory. Theory in practice is praxis . It used to be called dialectics .. still a good word even if dressed up in new theory drag.

Serious fun has it consequences including changing the status quo.

We are all at the same life party. Find the door you can come through to make PRAXIS a full time act of creativity .
