I’m looking for non-fiction books that make hope for the future. I’m burnt out.

I have done it all, for I don’t know, 30plus years now. From vegan cooking on the streets, protests, sit-ins, urban gardening projects, rural gardening, reforestation, so many things, from big movements to small projects, everything.

For various reasons, not all political, I’m pretty down and feel everything is doomed.

Any books that are more positive, we are making it or at least de could make it?

I would really apppreciate some recommendations. English or German.

    You’re just the “feels good” type of progressive.

    Hope for the future is built from mud, tears, sweat, and blood.

      Comrade, I think, you might have spoken too quickly… Maybe consider an apology. Comrades who do their best in the real world need our kindness and support sometimes more than armchair platitudes and machismo. Also, remember no serious activist will endanger themselves by talking about the illegal stuff they did, of course they can only list above board activity.
