Information that Society Needs to Wake the Fu*k Up The current state of humanity’s reality is one big cluster-fu@k, as well as a mystical dream. However, some of the people who are disengaging from ‘mainstream programming’, ‘social engineering’ and are waking up to the realities of our world, have only awoken to one side of the equation. Therefore, this list serves as a reminder of both the educational and conceptual ‘awakenings’ that need to occur on a widespread scale to transform our social systems into their new stage of evolution. Our future generations are depending on us not being asleep at the wheel. Regardless of how challenging at first it is to take in, when we do the ‘proper’ research, we understand that: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. Once we look into why this is happening, we begin to see scattered patterns of information that indicate more or less the following: 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. Sounds out of control right? 43. 44.

Pando Populus | We're all connected This 2016 Resolution for Humanity Will Give You Chills and Light a Fire Under Your Feet For 2016, we need a resolution capable of confronting the crisis we face, and making a future worth fighting for. "A Resolution" looks back on the crisis and confusion of 2015: climate change-driven wildfires, droughts, and storms; ISIS and their attacks in Paris, Beirut, and Ankara; bankrupt political leaders at COP21 debating how fast to kill the world; and an ever growing number of people murdered by police across American cities. As times grow darker, as despair and hopelessness grow in tandem with stupidity and horror, people everywhere are searching for vision and direction. As people worldwide are taking stock, looking backwards to 2015 and forward to 2016, "A Resolution" shows that amidst growing catastrophe, the only real future is the one we’ll make. Woodbine is a hub for building autonomy in the Anthropocene. Our mission is to grow collective material and organizational capacities and build revolution in the 21st century.

LDMG | Legal Defence & Monitoring Group Central Banks Nervous as Alternative Currency with David Bowie's Face Goes Viral John VibesSeptember 1, 2015 (ANTIMEDIA) Brixton, U.K. — One of the best ways for the general public to take power back is to develop alternative currencies — both local and global — that allow people to trade outside of the corporate-government banking systems and central bank notes. Many people in different areas of the world have been moderately successful at implementing local currencies, such as Mountain Hours or Ithaca Hours, which have gained traction in the U.S. In London, an interesting alternative currency bearing the face of pop singer David Bowie has recently come into circulation. Tom Shakhli, manager of the Brixton Pound effort, said, “They are using it because they want to feel connected to the local area. Shakhli pointed out that the project is intended to make a statement about the foundation of money, as well as provide an alternative to the current monopoly. Shakhli said that his main goal with the project is to ask, “What is money?
Treehouse Hotels Robin’s Nest Our trip to Robin’s Nest Treehouse Hotels in Hesse, Germany was filled with winding roads through small villages and eerie night routes. When we finally arrived on the mountain, where the treehouses are located, it was late at night and the forests were pitch black. We were finding our way to the cabin through the vast darkness, when we found owner Peter Becker sitting at a campfire. The moment we walked into our treehouse, a warm and cozy feeling spread over us thanks to the beautiful wooden interiors and a flickering fireplace. The next morning, we woke up surrounded by nothing but lush greenery, large trees and quietness. After a rustic breakfast buffet that included homemade pancakes and fluffy scrambled eggs, we chatted with Becker – who’s been a fan of Robin Hood since childhood – about how he came up with the idea for the treehouse hotels, the connection to the nearby Berlepsch Castle and his new life in the woods after spending many years in the big city… What’s next?

This historic event marks the Free and Equal Elections Foundation’s kickoff for a series of open presidential debates for 2016—and will be broadcast worldwide by freeandequal.org. However, the UWSF is much more than just a music festival. As a platform for voices of every race, color, and creed, the 2015 UWSF is an educational event combining activism, information to challenge the two-party political duopoly, practical solutions for both political and non-political issues, and the arts. During such a tumultuous time of injustice and hostility as we’ve witnessed in Ferguson, Baltimore, and around the country, Free and Equal’s initiatives have sparked a peaceful, positive, and powerful movement for effective, potent solutions. Claire Bernish joined Anti-Media as an independent journalist in May of 2015.
