Revolutionary Sisters is a think piece, a way forward for a more equitable and fairer society, which cherishes both people and the planet.

The world has become polarised - between the haves and the have nots, between competing political beliefs, between the people and those who rule or govern them .

We need collectively to rise up and demand that our rights and needs are met, that we get leaders who represent and respect us, in order to create a fairer and more just society. We ned a society that values kindness and empathy, the pursuit of knowledge for the sake of our fellow men, rather than self seeking and self aggrandising fame and fortune, and we learn to cherish and preserve the world that we have.

People are angry, people are sad, people are depressed, people are suffering ! And so is the poor planet that we live on. We have gradually become too disconnected from the natural world which sustains us, and over the last 50 years have seen an unprecedented destruction of the coral reefs, the rainforests, the wetlands and life in the oceans. Meanwhile, we are governed by strongmen rulers in many parts of the world who trample on our basic rights and show huge disdain for their people.

We have global systemic issues that we could actually fix, but the richest billionaires are too busy playing with their vast boats and boys toys “space rockets”. The richest man in the world - Elon Musk - has a dystopian vision of colonising Mars, living in underground chambers, populating the dying world and worlds beyond us with AI robots.

There is a better way ! Behind the scenes - often unsung - millions of people are working to make the world a better place: in health, in education, in cleaner energy, in nature, in freedoms and rights. The vast majority of people are good and honest - it is primarily the system that is broken: of excessive and untrammelled capitalism and a lack of corporate responsibility that is broken.
