So where is the pitch? OK, here it comes…and it is mainly aimed at my peers…Boomers (in the USA), not sure what you are called elsewhere…post WWII kids that grew up in the greatest period of freedom and personal growth this world has ever seen. Certainly in the US and Western Europe, and to a lesser degree in Latin America, and parts of Asia, we’ve experienced a level of personal growth, comfort and safety few before us could have imagined. But this has clearly not extended to many parts of the world. We thought we could change the world. And to be fair, some things have gotten better. But in the grand scheme of things, it seems to me as if we’ve only gotten better at finding ways to kill each other and strip the planet of resources needed by all for the enrichment of a very few.
So how do we get this to change? Send me a few bucks. Not a lot, just a few. Whatever you can afford, say, how much did you spend on a beer this week? $20 bucks? Or your bottle of bourbon or scotch? Or bag of weed? You get where I’m going….just a little bit, one time. I will never solicit you again. Ever. If you read this and think it is worthwhile, great, just send along a little something. And even more importantly, if you are not in a position to donate at this time, please forward this on to a good friend that might think like us. This is a movement that will live or die based on our support.
As this website is still coming together (can you tell?), I’m not yet set up for payment via credit cards or other digital payment platforms. These should be coming soon, but until then, you can send checks payable to OneWorldUndivided to:
OneWorldUndivided
13 High Ridge Rd #3423
Stamford CT 06905-3423
We have applied to the IRS for recognition as a 501 (c) (3) non-profit, and as such, all donations will be tax deductible.
In closing, if you think I’ve been at my pipe too long, well you may just be right. But I’m going to keep doing this anyway, because the world has to change and I don’t see anyone else out there that sees it just the same way as we do. A wise man (Eldridge Cleaver) said “if you’re not part of the solution, you are part of the problem”, or words to that effect. So, do something. Anything. But with a little help from you, this idea just might grow some legs…
