Alnoor Ladha: Oppression, Interconnection, Healing
Recorded in Summer 2020 for A New and Ancient Story Podcast (E48) from Charles Eisenstein
“The very practice of living the post-capitalist values is itself an act, but that requires being a good student of your culture, and spending some time educating yourself - ourselves - on what’s happening in the world as an ongoing practice.”
– Alnoor Ladha
Alnoor’s work focuses on the intersection of political organizing, systems thinking, structural change and narrative work. He was the co-founder and Executive Director of The Rules, a global network of activists, organizers, designers, coders, researchers, writers and others focused on changing the rules that create inequality, poverty and climate change. TR started in 2012 as a time-bound project and an experiment in temporary organizational design, exploring new ways of how to work, play, and make trouble together. Alnoor comes from a Sufi lineage and writes about the crossroads of politics and spirituality in troubled times. His work has been published in Al Jazeera, The Guardian, Truthout, Fast Company, Kosmos Journal, New Internationalist, and the Huffington Post among others.
