Finding a Beauty:Death Ratio in These Times - with MJ Brownlee

Deviating from the path that has been laid out by our culture and society can be an intimidating and liberating journey. This episode of the Grounded Futures Show brings MJ Brownlee, anarchist, anti-capitalist, and longtime friend of carla bergman, into conversation about his experiences with schooling, finding his own path, and being in relationship with himself and those he loves. He discusses how an anti-capitalist approach to schooling can open up experiences and create the ability to explore different trades, arts, skills and, ultimately, opportunities to build resilient, self-sufficient communities. He also touches on being a paramedic in the current COVID-19 pandemic, and how he is shifting his path once again in order to continue finding joy and thriving.
