Social Change, Part 5: The Big Picture!

Until now Matt and I have focused on how we, as individuals, must prepare if we are to participate, creatively and constructively, in society's progress from division to unity. Now, our discussion moves beyond the individual, and we begin to consider the larger context within which our efforts at social change must take place. What are the social forces that serve to bring about progress at the level of society? How do we, as individuals, align our efforts with these forces in order that we may become positive forces in the unification of humanity? As a former history teacher, the "big picture" is a subject that's near and dear to my heart, one that, at various points in this interview, pulls to the surface my passion for better understanding the concepts that underlie collective transformation and progress for the whole of humanity, indeed, the entire world... Yes, this is big!
