Angel Kyodo Williams, Lama Rod Owens, Jasmine Syedullah: Radical Dharma (2016) No rating

"Igniting a long-overdue dialogue about how the legacy of racial injustice and white supremacy plays …

This is an important book for anyone following a dharma tradition in the US, whether or not they consider themselves radical. As is so often the case in these traditions, this book doesn't offer ready-made, neatly-packaged answers; rather, it raises some deeply significant questions and offers some tools to engage with them.

Murray Bookchin: Remaking Society (2023, AK Press Distribution, AK Press) 4 stars

Capitalism, in effect, constitutes the point of absolute negativity for society and the natural world. One cannot improve this social order, reform it, or remake it on its own terms with an ecological prefix such as "ecocapitalism." The only choice one has is to destroy it, for it embodies every social disease - from patriarchal values, class exploitation, and statism to avarice, militarism, and now, growth for the sake of growth - that has afflicted "civilization" and tainted all its great advances.
