This powerful quote has been shared widely across the internet and in motivational speeches, though its exact origin remains unclear. What *is* clear is its message: the decline of education threatens the very foundation of society.

Capitalism, with its privatisation of education, is creating a deeply unequal future. America is a stark example—where a privileged minority now holds disproportionate control, while the majority is systematically left behind. The result? A society where opportunity is hoarded, and the potential of millions is stifled.

Education is the key to justice and progress. Let’s fight for a system that uplifts everyone, not just the few.

In Berlin’s Gendarmenmarkt square, Brazilian artist Nele Azevedo created a powerful art display to talk about climate change.

She placed 1,000 small ice sculptures on the steps of the square, each shaped like a person. As the day got warmer and the sun shone brighter, the sculptures began to melt. This showed how global warming is affecting our planet.

The event, organized with WWF Germany, focused on how the Arctic’s ice is melting faster than ever because of rising temperatures. […]

A Livable Future Is Possible addresses artificial intelligence and the potential for such programs to surpass humans in cognitive awareness; what lies ahead for a world engulfed in a deadly climate crisis; the rise of neo-fascism internationally, and why we should organize across borders to confront it; the striking similarities between Trump and Biden's foreign policies; and a number of other critical issues gripping the planet. Noam Chomsky has been an incomparable model of moral clarity and intellectual courage during his many decades as a scholar and critic. He is the most cited living scholar. One would be hard-pressed to find a more influential voice than Chomsky’s in the West. A Livable Future Is Possible is not only an urgent and informative resource, it is a call-to-action for those hoping to help carry the torch of one of history’s greatest minds.
