Metapolitical: Practicing Our Human Future

A new book by Nowick Gray compiles essays appearing in the New Agora over the momentous last two years of covid hysteria. Countering the mass hypnosis of false narratives with extensive topical research and clarifying insight, these diverse entries offer human solutions with wisdom and humour, grounded in wild nature, sustainable culture and free spirit.

Metapolitics, Nowick says, “gives readers a lens to see below, between, and above partisan conflicts. In this accelerating war on humanity, we urgently need to break free of the narrative box of the old paradigm of hierarchical power, and start practicing our sovereign human future.”

The author brings a wealth of experience into expression in these essays, including early years in the heart of American empire, teaching among the Inuit, homesteading beside wilderness, and nonviolent activism for disarmament and watershed protection. Nowick is also an accomplished musician, editor, and writer of numerous books of fiction and creative nonfiction. One reviewer says “Gray’s use of language is superb: detailed yet economical; vivid and appealing.”

An empowering deep dive for free thinkers, righteous rebels, and awaking activists, Metapolitical unpacks key topics such as Myths of Human Nature, Constructive Anarchism, Art and Politics, and Conscious Evolution. There is also a complete 18-part series, Coronavirus Journal, that chronicles our collective journey through the 2020-21 nightmare and shapes visions of our creative survival.

“What is stopping us,” Nowick asks the reader, “from practicing our human future now?”
