The most important national election in U.S. history is underway.
Marianne Williamson stepped-up to show she is confident to be
president of the United States in 2020. She had to step down. Many
people are supportive of her provocative healing vision for
America, and that fan and voter-base is growing. She may run again
in 2024. However, many are puzzled by her and many are critics on
the Left and Right and in between. The book is a thorough case
study of Williamson's speeches, writings, and interviews. It
documents and analyzes the thoughts and feelings of her supporters
and critics based on what they have written, performed, and
published. It records history while it is being made. The author
offers support and criticism of how Williamson's leadership and her
team could have done things different so as to be more successful
in the presidential campaign. The big idea throughout the book is
to emphasize, as does Williamson's teaching, that spirituality and
politics ought never be separated completely (as religion and the
State), if we truly desire more than mere reforms of society, but
desire a transformation to a truly better and more liberated world.
The book highlights productive guideposts for Williamson and other
leaders like Williamson in future campaigns. It offers Americans,
and others, a view of "what happened" in 2019-20 that made
Williamson an outstanding phenomenon. Students, scholars,
journalists, politicians, and the general public interested in the
improvement of politics will want to study this book.

In times of extreme cascading global crises facing humanity, all
responsible humans need to re-evaluate the dominant worldview that
has brought us to this point of facing extinction. As a species we
need to relearn the "good" ways from our greatest allies in Nature
and from Indigenous cultures that lived in relative harmony with
Nature. Equally, we need to learn the best ways to think critically
and act on the holistic understanding that may guide us beyond our
individual and collective trance and illusions cast forth like
chains upon modern societies through elites who manipulate fear.
Fearless Engagement of Four Arrows offers a unique strong
"medicine" for the reconstruction of a healthy, sane, and
sustainable future for all. Utilizing the form of an intellectual
biography of Four Arrows (aka Dr. Don Trent Jacobs) and his daring
activist life and true teaching stories, the author creates a
powerful adventure into the firey philosophy, activism, and
emancipatory inspirations of one of the world's great visionary
prophetic educators and social transformers. Through a number of
unique experiences, including firefighting, white-water kayaking,
wild horse training, world-class athletic competitions, and
counter-cultural activism, Four Arrows has become a connoisseur of
fear and courage. This book shows how he walks a universal ethical
path of Fearlessness at a time when too many remain trapped by
their fears. Among other readers, high school teachers and
post-secondary teachers across diverse disciplines will find great
ideas, eliciting dialogues and study questions for students, who
now face a globalizing world where they can take charge of the
future via fearless engagement.

The World's Fearlessness Teachings addresses the human fear problem
in a truly unique and insightful way, summarizing the teachings on
fearlessness from around the world and throughout history. The
author then utilizes critical integral theory (a la Wilber) as an
approach to categorize the developmental and evolutionary spectrum
of fear management systems known thus far. The author has spent
twenty years researching the timely topic of fear and how to best
manage and transform it. From this experience, he offers an
educational healing vision to address the challenges of a dangerous
21st century. Fear's empire has taken rule. It is time to resist it
using the best intelligence from both sacred and secular
traditions, as well as the transformational theories humanity has
to offer. Fisher maps out ten fear management systems that will
benefit future-positive leaders everywhere.
