Scream Corner is now needed more than ever

There is so much we need to scream about! Humanity appears to be falling back into dark times, and instead of tackling the planetary and human existential emergency that we have create, we keep fighting wars, committing genocide and ecocide, and polluting our home planet.

The Scream Corner on the Town Square is needed more than ever. There is so much happening right now that requires our actions, resistance, protests, and - not least - our screams! The treatment of women in Afghanistan, the genocides in Sudan and Gaza, the prosecution of people who express concerns about the injustices emerging clearly in so many place, the continuing degradation of our home planet, the inability of our governments to provide new homes for those who only have the choice to stay and die or migrate, all of this is to scream about. We want to scream about this - and then plan actions to address the injustice and fight to keep diversity, make progress towards equity, and ensure inclusion of all.

We are still developing the rules for who can start a new scream and who can scream. If you have any thoughts on that, let us now.
