The June 2020 TV program for the “Glen’s Parallax Perspectives” TV series addresses the serious problems that we are experiencing and encourages people to boldly envision solutions.

People know the status quo is bad – and they want to solve the problems.

But nearly everybody is bogged down in feeling powerless.  They don’t feel empowered to solve the problems, and they don’t know how to proceed.

This TV program — and the transcript I have posted at this link,  2020.06 BOLD FUTURE — TRANSCRIPT with MORE INFORMATION and RESOURCES — start by confronting the serious problems in our world, our nation, and our local communities.  Then we quickly move on with insights and encouragement that can empower you to solve these problems.

This program’s first half invites YOU to tap into YOUR best values and BOLDLY CHOOSE A BETTER FUTURE for our local communities, our nation and our world.

The second half provides even more empowerment so you can actually succeed in solving the serious problems we face.  Many people feel overwhelmed and despair, so this program’s second half helps us move through the negative feelings and into empowering ourselves so we can actually succeed in solving the problems.

It’s a big job, but we really can do it if we use your good values and your bold vision for the future.

The transcript I linked near the beginning of this blog post ends with some resources so you can develop smart skills and strategies for nonviolent grassroots organizing.  My blog’s “Organizing” and “Nonviolence” categories provide a great many additional resources to inform, inspire, and empower you with insights and strategies for the good work you’ll be doing.

I hope you will share with your friends these blog links.
