A spiritual-political praxis – Alnoor Ladha

Resisting categorization, Alnoor works towards the healing of culture, people and the living world, bringing spirituality, politics and place-based work into dialogue with one another. He co-founded The Rules – a global activist collective and thinktank for economic alternatives. He also co-founded the post-capitalist community Tierra Valiente in Costa Rica, where he lives. He is a board member of Culture Hack Labs and The Emergence Network, co-director of the Transition Resource Circle and co-author of Post Capitalist Philanthropy: Healing Wealth in the Time of Collapse.

In this episode, Alnoor brainstorms how we might appropriate, co-opt, discard and/or reclaim the proverbial master’s tools in order to take down the house and revolutionize the system we live in. He brings a non-dualist complexity to discussions about movement building and awareness raising and localization, and finally turns his attention to healing the rift between political work and spiritual work.
