Rufus Pollock - Meet the MetaModerns: Emerging Movement with Alternative Approach to Social Change
~Co-presented with the OMEGA Resilience Funders Network~
Join Host Michael Lerner in conversation with systems researcher, cultural activist, and social entrepreneur Rufus Pollock. In this conversation we share recent work mapping an emerging “metamodern” ecosystem centered on a radical, alternative approach to social change–one that is simultaneously paradigmatic, integrated, and engaged.

He wants his child (and all children) to live in a world of love, abundance and wisdom.

His book Open Revolution is about making a radically freer and fairer information age and has been translated into multiple languages. His next book, Wiser Societies, is about the cultural dark matter that enables societies be wiser (and weller).
