An Anthology of the Anthropocene

'For The Wild' is an anthology of the Anthropocene; focused on land based protection, co-liberation and intersectional storytelling rooted in a paradigm shift from human supremacy towards deep ecology. 'For The Wild' believes that: Our economic system is based on converting the living world into dead commodities and waste, while our political system is designed to safeguard this system. No amount of "reform" will ever reach the root causes of our crises. Some people will turn their backs on Empire and create a parallel reality, while others will fight to halt the destruction. The reality of biotic collapse is undeniable. As the demands of modern societies intensify, we are headlong into the most rapid extinction event in Earth's history. What's left of wilderness exists mostly in isolated pockets too small to support biodiversity. We stand before a vast opportunity to re-imagine our relation to the whole, and to redefine happiness and progress. Ayana Young is an American podcast and radio personality specializing in inter-sectional environmental and social justice, deep ecology and land-based restoration.
