Despite the forces seeking to turn back the clock on history, change is not a possibility; it is an inevitability.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The changes amount to nothing less than dismantling an old civilization and building a new one, whose newness is often the return of the old ways and wisdoms. In this rising worldview, interconnection is a core idea and value. But because the transformation is obscured within a longer arc of history, its scale is seldom recognized.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e While the white nationalist and authoritarian backlash drives individualism and isolation, this new world embraces antiracism, feminism, a more expansive understanding of gender, environmental thinking, scientific breakthroughs, and Indigenous and non-Western ideas, pointing toward a more interconnected, relational world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRebecca Solnit\u003c\/strong\u003e is the author of more than twenty books, including \u003cem\u003eOrwell's Roses\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003e Hope in the Dark\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003e Men Explain Things to Me\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003e A Paradise Built in Hell: The Extraordinary Communities That Arise in Disaster\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eA Field Guide to Getting Lost\u003c\/em\u003e.
