The movement for change is upon us. Check out the Detroit dollars. Check out the fact that there were hundreds of local currencies cropping up during the depression. Check out the new YES magazine that has a special issue on the NEW economy. Check out hopedance for its numerous articles about this movement toward a different economy: http://tinyurl.com/kth585. Check out our MONEY AND LIVELIHOOD special issue: http://www.hopedance.org/new/issues/56/. Our NEW Summer issue will feature Ojai as well as a number of other groups and orgs that are coming together to create something new. Also there is a new film called “Coming Home” about Berkshire as well as Berkshares that deals with more than just currency: land ownership, food, energy. See a review of it here at: http://www.localharvest.org/dvd-coming-home-37-minutes-C12708. Thats enough for now, except for a playlist of short videos about local currency that I created at: http://tinyurl.com/p49ppc. Good luck Ojai Economy Group. I want to attend the summit!!! bob banner for hopedance and edibleSLO Thanks for writing that piece and for Pac Biz Times to publish it. The movement for change is upon us.
