Return of the Light: A Political Fable in Which the American People Retake Their Country

It is the night of the Winter Solstice in 2120. At one of thousands of community gatherings across the United States, a storyteller begins the annual retelling of how, back in 2023, the people took over their own government, making it a means for mobilizing their collective power to promote peace, social justice, environmental responsibility, and a society hospitable to the needs of the human spirit. She recounts what life was like before: how public policy was dominated by corporate interests that infected almost every area of life. A united movement, led by a new kind of grass-roots political party, was necessary for real change She tells how, over a period of years, that movement developed and succeeded in creating a nonviolent revolution. Part vision of the road forward for today's concerned citizens, part organizing tool, Return of the Light is a source of hope and inspiration.
