Following a meeting with Peter Buffett in January, I had a dream in which I saw all of the attempts at alchemy in the world. In the dream I saw that the only thing that had been successfully turned into gold was the blood of humanity - both those explicitly oppressed and those who are enslaved by their obsessions. Peter and recording artist AKON took that dream and created a masterful song calling for accountability which will be debuted at the UN International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade, March 25, 2009. Please share this video with all you know and join in the effort to see the wealth in the essence of things and people rather than in the gold that from them can be extracted...

Dave,
ReplyDeleteThanks for working to bring this call to fruition. It's an excellent song and artistically strong as a video. I have embedded it and commented on my blog. For those interested in more detail on this issue another excellent reference is E. Benjamin Skinner's troubling but superlative book A Crime So Monstrous.
Damn it, David...Is there anything you can't do?
ReplyDeleteIn all sincerity, congrats on making this inspiration a reality - it deserves attention. It's on my Facebook page, soon to be on my blog. Thank you for sharing.
