Trump takes over the government. The Earth takes the planet. We join the Earth. Taking risks, stepping out, speaking up. Marching in the ultimate parade. THE EARTH IS ALIVE. Everything we have in us—our resistance, our strength—is given to us by the Earth and is now called forth by the living Earth. She will raise us up to our best selves. The Earth is a living being, and we are living within her. We will join the larger life that calls to us, and we will end toxins and war with fierce Love.

Saturday, did we walk back the Greatness? Saturday, did we march with simple love that the nation saw from a window? Saturday, did 50-person villages walk alongside the beautiful strangers who have been walking for months? Saturday, did our whisper reach the stranded youth facing another false American war? Saturday, did we walk out of the virtual into the actual, out of consumerism into our radical self? Saturday, did honesty appear in broad daylight and walk with us across town? Saturday, did we walk until we fell in love with breathing, singing, and believing? Saturday, did we remember to invite the dead who walked a continent into our conscience? Saturday, did we greet each other with gentleness and the look in the eye when the hand is warm? And in the days after, are we keeping that compassion and rage in us, from a special Saturday in April?

We're not ready for revolution talk, with citizen peace activists being ICEd from their homes. We're in shock. We're staring at Trump. What can we do? The violence against people and the Earth will be stopped. And we, the people, will end it. How? This week on Earth Riot Radio, we remember five heroes who faced the modern corruption of the USA, and they made their move with their bodies and spoken word, with their families and their singing... Sun Ra, Roger Hallam, Asatta Shakur, John Trudell and Edward Snowden. These courageous ones each found a personal, creative response to wage peace against the violence, artists ahead of their time. Now, they are martyred or exiled, but they lived for life.
