This video is reflective of our engaging in a dynamic interchange with Warren Consolidated students at the Macomb Math Science and Technology Center in Waren, Michigan. The place could be Madagascar or Tibet. The End Game is the same. To engage individuals in their own self directed learning process. This self empowerment becomes real when each person understands that each one of them holds keys in their self awareness that can unlock the mysteries to life's questions. Valuable answers to societies shortcomings can then be put to work when two or more of these enlightened individuals create a community of practice. Our young people don't have as many pre-programmed self defeating doubts as their adult counterparts generally do, they also have the energy and are the future of humanity. Although these truths apply to all life the world over, we still hold the belief that because of the philosophical foundations of which America was founded on, that this highest form of personal freedom and responsibility can and should flourish here so that we can in reality help spread the practice of a true and participatory democracy that can bring a sustainable peace and prosperity to this beleaugered planet.
So try to engage your mind with your heart, reach out make a difference, share your ideas, hopes and dreams, life is so short, bring value to it everyday by communicating and collaborating in community.That's all,it's simple and fun and compelling, join the dance!
