Journalist Sarah van Gelder suspected that there were solutions, and she went looking for them, not in the centers of power, where people are richly rewarded for their allegiance to the status quo, but off the beaten track, in rural communities, small towns, and neglected urban neighborhoods. She bought a used pickup truck and camper and set off on a 12,000-mile journey through eighteen states, dozens of cities and towns, and five Indian reservations. From the ranches of Montana to the coalfields of Kentucky to the urban cores of Chicago and Detroit, van Gelder discovered people and communities who are remaking America from the ground up. Join her as she meets the quirky and the committed, the local heroes and the healers who, under the mass media's radar, are getting stuff done. The common thread running through their work was best summed up by a phrase she saw on a mural in Newark: ?We the People LOVE This Place.? That connection we each have to our physical and ecological place, and to our human community, is where we find our power and our best hopes for a new America. 606 $aSocial advocacy 606 $aSocial service 607 $aUnited States$xDescription and travel 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSocial advocacy. 615 0$aSocial service. 676 $a361.3 700 $aVan Gelder$b Sarah$0914824 702 $aGlover$b Danny 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910148755703321 996 $aThe revolution where you live$92063343 997 $aUNINA
