DESCRIPTION:For our May, 2025 meeting we will be reading the first fourteen essays in 
 The New Possible: Visions of Our World Beyond Crisis (Barnes and Noble).  
 For our June meeting, we will read the remaining essays.\n2020 upended 
 every aspect of our lives. But where is our world heading next? Will 
 pandemic, protests, economic instability, and social distance lead to 
 deeper inequalities, more nationalism, and further erosion of democracies 
 around the world? Or are we moving toward a global re-awakening to the 
 importance of community, mutual support, and the natural world? In our 
 lifetimes, the future has never been so up for grabs. The New Possible 
 offers twenty-eight unique visions of what can be, if instead of choosing 
 to go back to normal, we choose to go forward to something far better.\n

 simply speculation. They are an inspiration and a roadmap for action. With
