'It is high time to stop pretending - and claiming - degrowth is one thing, one huge all-encompassing framework that will fix the world. Instead, let’s focus on what it is that degrowth brings that the rest of political programs have missed so far: the ideology of growth, in all its socio-cultural, economic, material and political iterations, is the curse of our time. It is the most blatant expression of capitalism in the neoliberal globalised age, rooted so deeply into the political and cultural hegemony of our societies that it goes unnoticed, and is taken for granted, even by many of the most radical struggles. Centering growth provides a sharp tool to dismantle intersecting systems of oppression by targeting the core mechanism of capital accumulation.'

Slow Down: The Degrowth Manifesto by Kohei Saito

In honor of Indigenous People's Day, the Post-Growth Institute has an online Offers And Needs Market tomorrow, Monday Oct. 13/25, 11:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. Pacific. Getting our needs met doesn't have to be soulless & transactional. It can be a way to experience connection by being good humans, & this is still the basis of many Indigenous economies. Donations welcome, but you can attend for free.

What can you offer / request? The Institute says (click the link): physical or conversational Passions (meditation, climate, decluttering), Knowledge & Perspectives (Islamic traditions, drip irrigation, how to use gender pronouns), formal / informal Skills & Services (Spanish lessons, making origami cranes) . . .

When I attended before, I connected with a guy who'd offered info re scything; I offered fermenting info (sauerkraut, yogurt, tempeh, natto). I will probably attend this (depends on work).
