The Greening of America
Charles A. Reich, 1970
A Yale law professor argues that the counterculture's change of consciousness, not politics, is the real revolution remaking America.
Charles A. Reich
Reich was a Yale law professor; The Greening of America became a bestseller and made 'Consciousness III' a shorthand for the counterculture's turn inward.
Feels like freedom, society and hope.
A revolution that begins in the self and refuses to pick up a weapon.
There is a revolution coming. It will not be like revolutions of the past. It will originate with the individual and with culture, and it will change the political structure only as its final act. It will not require violence to succeed, and it cannot be successfully resisted by violence. It is now spreading with amazing rapidity, and already our laws, institutions and social structure are changing in consequence. It promises a higher reason, a more human community, and a new and liberated individual. Its ultimate creation will be a new and enduring wholeness and beauty — a renewed relationship of man to himself, to other men, to society, to nature, and to the land.This is the revolution of the new generation.
