Tavis A. Bragg (TavisB): 23, Male
CA

Hometown:: Wolfville

About Me:: I am a sociologist and philosopher who is intent on studying climate change, ideology, economics, and politics. I am arguing that the very stance of environmentalism is flawed and will lead to environmental degredation as it is not an ideology in itself but rather a systematic response to climate change that cannot possibly see us through. Social ecology (or eco-socialism as some groups are labelling themselves) allied with indigenous movements worldwide is the only way we will see real change.

Gender:: Male

Issues that matter to me:: new media, informed citizenship, climate change, indigenous movements, ideology, green & left politics, social movements, social theory

No justice for the Colombian people being displaced and murdered

I've just got in from a protest we held in outside of Peter McKay's office in New Glasgow. This arose from Canada plausibly signing a deal with Columbia that establishes free trade. Next week Leocadio Juracan will be giving a talk here (in Wolfville, Nova Scotia in the fair trade cafe "Just Us" nestled next to Acadia University), if there is interest I will attempt to record it for you folks. The information on the brochure I read stated for today,
