Inner Light Ministries presents a groundbreaking collaboration between Paul Hawken and Rev. Deborah L. Johnson as they team up for a weekend of cross-movement engagement to build synergies between the environmental and social justice movements. Through the sharing of their collective wisdom and individual expertise, Paul Hawken and Rev. Deborah L. Johnson will guide participants through a weekend of interactive skills building through personal and collective introspection. Their overview of the mutual challenges and benefits of cross-movement collaboration will make clear the urgent necessity of revolutionizing our values and uniting with each other in heart and deed. “If we look at the root causation of environmental and social ills, we will see that fundamentally it is the same consciousness subjugating both the planet and her people†said Rev. Deborah L. Johnson. “We are asking people to not only seek to change the symptoms of this consciousness – war, poverty, racism, mass incarceration, pollution, deforestation - but to change the underlying paradigms that perpetuate it.†Groups and individuals who are passionate about global transformation, who seek to bring about an environmentally sustainable and socially just world that works for everyone, are encouraged to attend.
Paul Hawken brings a lifetime of environmental action and entrepreneurship, influencing millions of people internationally---from students and business leaders to environmental activists and heads of state---with his books, speaking, research, businesses, and consulting. The weekend explores the concepts in his book Blessed Unrest. Rev Deborah Johnson is a renowned dynamic speaker known for bringing clarity to complex issues. She is a convener, organizer, facilitator and trainer in numerous national projects working at the intersection of race, religion, sexuality, and public policy. Intentionally scheduled on the Columbus Day weekend, these two powerful and influential leaders are poised to facilitate a groundbreaking engagement that will revolutionize the way we think about our relationship to each other and the planet in ways that will synergize our activism.
