Last Fastness
Terse and concise or rambling and hypnotic, poetry finds the music in language. Building pictures from sound, layering obvious over oblique on obscure, it secretes multiple levels of meaning for the seeking. If a picture is worth a thousand words the goal of a single word is to create a whirl of images. Reducing, condensing, saying more with less: making music in the flow of the words.
What Should I Do If Reverend Billy is in My Store?
This is an entertaining account of Reverend Billy, a self-declared fake southern Baptist preacher of The Church of Stop Shopping, who uses guerilla theatrics and culture jamming to enlighten consumers. We go inside The Disney Store in New York to witness staged dramas against consumerism, we encounter a credit card exorcism performed in front of a crowd of astonished tourists and we listen to a gospel choir singing anti-Starbucks anthems.
The Reverend Billy Project
Reverend Billy, the revivalist preacher created by performance artist Bill Talen, has attracted an international following as he has railed in white suit and clerical collar against the evils of excessive consumerism and corporate irresponsibility. In his early solo performances in Times Square he delivered sermons by megaphone against Starbucks and the Disney Store; as his message and popularity spread, he's been joined by a 35-member choir (the Life After Shopping Gospel Choir) and a 7-piece band. The group's acclaimed stage show and media appearances (including a major motion picture, What Would Jesus Buy?) have reached millions. The Reverend Billy Projectpresents backstage accounts of re...

The Change Manifesto
"The Change Manifesto is a street-by-street, town-by-town guide to making an America that works. Our nation has the potential to be an example of freedom and justice to the world and each of us has the ability to have tremendous impact. In this stirring call to arms, John Whitehead tells the stories of the local heroes who stood up to a cynical government, and who are creating thriving communities of change. We are on the cusp of a new era of progress, but we can't sit back and hope our elected officials will carry us there. We can join the people taking action at the local level, like the residents of a town in Oregon who protested unfair bills by paying in pennies, chickens and the shirts off their back. And we can follow the examples of the national heroes who are fighting for change and demanding accountability from our elected officials at the highest levels. If we refuse to listen to the cynics, we can join these everyday Americans, young and old, and harness our greatest resource: ourselves."
