A PROGRESSIVE VISIONARY WHO LIVES HIS VALUES - DANIEL GEERY

ENVISION THIS: A society where the Golden Rule--both for our neighbors and for our environment--is the guiding principle

Our guest, Daniel Geery, states his guiding philosophy at his candidate website during an unsuccessful run for congress against Orin Hatch in Utah: “Treat your neighbors as you’d want to be treated; help the less fortunate; forgive others; educate youth in a well-rounded curriculum; live in harmony with Nature and within our means; encourage recognition that we are one species on one planet, with many differences but also with the same ultimate fate; push for kindness and fairness as globally accepted norms. Recognize that humanity, not money, is what we are ultimately working for.” Why did he lose?  How can he/we win?

Daniel walks his talk…all of it.  Come, listen to a true progressive visionary, one who has campaigned on his principles; gotten fired as a tenured, acclaimed teacher for speaking up to authority; written editorials for OpEd news and a coming-of-age novel; lived off the grid; and invented an upward gliding airship.  Let’s hear how Daniel Geery visualizes a more humane and resilient culture.
