Bøger af Karl Linn

Karl Linn's compassion, humanity and insight into what makes good community design--and what, in fact, makes community itself--is exactly what much of the world needs to develop if we are to evolve beyond our current frightful state of affairs. He saw the need for space and safety, beauty and joy in people's lives--especially the lives of poor children--and he filled it by the truckload. His was a quietly heroic life, lived close to the root of what really matters: an understanding that the happiness and peace we create for others is, delightfully, our own.--Alice Walker, author, The Color Purple There was only one Karl Linn--a master at using design to create community and empower people.>Seeing latent beauty and potentials in blighted urban spaces, Karl Linn took actions to realize his vision through gardening, farming and restoring environment. Through the process, he inspired people, built communities, and transformed many public spaces. He made use feel our heart.>We stand on the shoulders of Karl Linn, each of us who acts to creatively reclaim the commons for each and all communities. Karl Linn understood the greatest revolutionary secrets of all: not to fight but to create, not to be alone but to be together, and to recreate our common life beginning with the very ground under our feet!>Foreword by Joanna Macy, Epilogue by Carl Anthony
