Review by Annie Lee
The book is an in depth look at how humanity has gone from being citizens, with community at the heart of a lot of what we do, to consumers who are disconnected to the natural world, each other, the political process & who feel powerless in the face of the crises we face.
He also weaves in personal anecdotes from his time in marketing as well as hugely inspiring examples of people creating impactful community led projects, truly inclusive & equitable political parties & organisations attempting to move towards a ‘citizen story’. It also includes practical measures as to how we can foster more of a ‘citizen’ mindset. I am finding it an empowering read that is both idealistic AND realistic!!
