The dominator culture of control and rigid hierarchical violence, as Dr. Riane Eisler calls it, has wounded all of us.

It has taught men that love is power, and women that love is submission.

It has scraped the world raw, clear-cut forests, poisoned rivers, and smothered the sky in the name of progress. It is at the root of genocide.

It has used fear and judgment in a foolish attempt to block the eternal flow of life. And it tricks us by promising life will be better AFTER we die.
