“Having spent the 60’s as a voice for Revolution, political, cultural, artistic change I felt a need for a spiritual (not religious) dimension as well. And so Revolutionary Animism. The material domination of life is at best vacuous and must be addressed.” – Ben Morea
Ben Morea, a former major activist and revolutionary artist in the 60’s will speak on his journey from approaching activism from a place or anarchy to now coming from values of animism. He is well known historically from the 60’s for his involvement in Black Mask, Up against the wall Mother fucker, and his art. He left society for many years, spending time deep in nature, only to reemerge to speak all over the world around the ties between environmentalism and animism. This will be a special night at ahimsa as we enjoy the warm hearted and wise nature of Ben Morea as he speaks on his many years of standing up for and loving mother nature and her inhabitants.
