Join us for a screening the 1998 short Headwaters Action Video Collective documentary, Luna, followed by a heartfelt conversation led by Dr. Joanna Macy and Julia Butterfly Hill.  We will dive into how our hope, despair, purpose and action serve (and don't serve) us at this time in our planet's history.

More about Julia & Joanna:

Eco-philosopher Joanna Macy, Ph.D., is a scholar of Buddhism, general systems theory, and deep ecology. A respected voice in movements for peace, justice, and ecology, she interweaves her scholarship with four decades of activism. She has created a ground-breaking theoretical framework for personal and social change, as well as a powerful workshop methodology for its application.

 Julia Butterfly Hill brought international attention to the plight of the world’s lastremaining ancient forests when, in late 1997, she climbed 180 feet up a 1,000year-old Redwood tree and refused to come down.  Her historic 738-dayprotest of the environmental destruction caused by clear-cutting ancientredwoods culminated with a negotiated agreement that provided permanentprotection for the tree (“Luna”) and a nearly 3 acre buffer-zone. Julia is a writer, poet and activist. She is author of the national best sellerThe Legacy of Luna, now published in11 languages, and co-author of One MakesThe Difference, both published by HarperSanFrancisco. LUNA, based on Julia’s personal account of the Luna tree-sit, isnow in development as a major motion picture.
