"For development to occur it is necessary that there be a movement of search and creativity having its  seat of decision in the searcher, that this movement occur not only in space, but in the existential time of the conscious searcher.
-Paulo Friere, Pedagogy of the Oppressed


These young women in Buchanan City, Liberia are workshopping their own conscious search for a better life. Despite the increasing deterioration of society everywhere, much of the world is also rethinking,  rebuilding, and reuniting. As more and more civil society, grassroots organizations, interfaith groups, and many community-based organizations come together to demand social justice and equal rights, we can see the tiny glimmerings of peace. But la lucha continua-the struggle continues. Share projects underway in your neck of the woods.
