The Global Art, Culture & Humanity Renaissance
A Movement Owned by No One - Belonging to All

 
Through art, writing, satire, action, leadership, we break through the fog and noise with relentless truth telling, and crystal moral clarity, with the shared belief in the value of EVERY creature no matter how small, and the sole purpose of reminding people of their power and inherent worth by virtue of being alive.

It's not bound by the past, by the old rules of performance & commercialization at the expense of truth, integrity and care. It will not be monetized in the ways of old. Yes, you are welcome to support individual artists as patrons, and must respect relevant copyright laws, but the movement itself cannot be contained, pinned down, or bought.

 📚 They’ll Never Find Us in the Library📚 
By Byron Glaze
The year is 2025. The so-called ‘Second Civil War’ has begun—not with cannon fire, but with Facebook posts in all caps and misspelled threats about “tyrany.”  

The MAGA militias have mobilized. Their uniforms are camo cargo shorts, their battle cry is “I did my own research,” and their primary weapon is a deep mistrust of punctuation.

Meanwhile, deep in the stacks of a public library, the resistance thrives.

Commander Byron Glaze adjusts his reading glasses and surveys the war room, formerly the children’s reading nook, now a tactical hub lined with maps, banned books, and a whiteboard that says, “KNOWLEDGE IS LETHAL.”

“They’ll never find us here,” he says, sipping tea from a mug that reads ‘This Is My Last Nerve’.

His lieutenant nods.  “We’ve encrypted our communications using MLA format. They’ll never decode it."

Outside, a MAGA scout approaches the library cautiously, muttering, “This here’s one of them liberal indoctrination centers. I heard they got pronouns in there.”

He peeks inside, sees a sign that says Quiet, Please and flees in terror.

“It’s a trap! They’re usin’ silence as psychological warfare!”

Back inside, the resistance is thriving. They’ve weaponized footnotes. They’ve fortified the Philosophy section. They’ve trained in the ancient art of Socratic questioning.

“Sir,” a scout reports, “they tried to storm the library in Alabama but got stuck in the revolving door. One of them challenged a globe to a fistfight.”

Commander Glaze smiles.

“Perfect. Let them rage against the dictionaries. We’ll be here, organizing, educating, and alphabetizing.”

50 Million Log Off: The Digital Exodus Reshapes the Global Attention Economy, Slows Authoritarian Coup

World. In what analysts are calling the “Woodstock of Attention,” over 10 million people across the United States and beyond unplugged from Big Tech platforms last week, marking the largest coordinated digital walkout in human history.
          Dubbed the Digital Exodus, the movement targetted massive drops in daily active users across Meta, X, Google, Amazon, and Apple services - with major advertisers reportedly “panicking quietly into their cold brew,” according to one former Google employee.
          At the center of the movement is a simple premise: attention is power. And for the first time in decades, it seems that power is moving back toward the people.
          “We thought the platforms were immortal,” said Mila Forrester, a digital strategist-turned-permaculture farmer. “Turns out they’re just ad companies with really good UX.”
          The movement began quietly in corners of Discord servers, community gardens, and living rooms where people had begun questioning the emotional costs of the algorithm economy. But in the weeks leading up to Earth Day, momentum surged, thanks in part to rising concerns about digital surveillance, political manipulation, and what one protester called “the spiritual crime of endless scroll.”
          The tipping point? The platforms themselves. “You can’t declare loyalty to authoritarian regimes, profit off public breakdown, and still call yourself a neutral tech company,” said Professor Rani Okafor, who’s been tracking corporate entanglement with Project 2025. “Eventually, people notice.”
     The Exodus Guidebook, a grassroots PDF that circulated widely across networks and group chats, offered a roadmap: 1) Cancel Amazon. 2) Leave Meta, X and Google. 3) Switch to open-source tools. 4) Reclaim your time. 5) Tell someone else.
          Within days after its launch on Earth Day, hashtags like #DigitalExodus, #SovereignScrollsOnly, and #OffTheBig5, began trending off platform, largely through encrypted messengers, decentralized media site, local zines, and public art installations.
          While Silicon Valley CEOs have downplayed the impact. Internal memos leaked from Meta suggest they are “strategizing around emotional re-engagement 
pathways” - which apparently includes offering free puppies via Instagram stories.
         Governments around the world are reportedly watching closely.
          In Denmark, parliament held a session on “post-platform governance.” In Brazil, cooperatives are forming around community-owned mesh networks. And in the U.S., three Senators have quietly asked what happens when the lobbyists lose their data.
          For now, those participating in the Exodus say it’s not about perfection — it’s about direction, it's about movement, it's about taking our power by, one by one. Every action matters. Every person matters.
          “We’re not just logging off,” said ex-product manager Jamal Dorsey. “We’re walking toward something we lost when social media took over - each other.”
          Big Tech’s next quarterly reports are expected next week. Some predict investor panic. Others say it’ll blow over. But as one mural in Portland now reads in bold colors on a cracked iPhone: “The Revolution Will Not Be Monetized.”
          And that's exactly what we are seeing: cracks in the authoritarian coup that simply can't take hold if people are able to think clearly and take back their power.
