Guy standing’s words have served as the launching point from which this book began. The book is a call for us all to renew our commitment and dedication to building diverse and powerful movements for a secure, stable and equitable society. To do so we must address inequality, as all peoples within our communities experience it. The book offers a revived purpose: not to surrender to economic and social practices as if they were inevitable and immutable but rather to pursue a common security that would enhance our communities.
