Stephanie Mills
Since 1969, Stephanie Mills has been leading the charge in environmental activism. The author of such books as Tough Little Beauties, Epicurean Simplicity, and In Service of the Wild, she has also been featured in several periodicals and often lectures at ecological conferences from the local to national level.
Her latest book, On Gandhi’s Path: Bob Swann’s Work for Peace and Community Economics, highlights the life and legacy of Bob Swann, “a self-taught economist, a tireless champion of decentralism, and the father of the relocalization movement. A conscientious war resistor imprisoned for his beliefs, Bob Swann engaged in lifelong nonviolent direct action against war, racism, and economic inequity. His legacy is a vision of a life-affirming, alternative economy of peace founded on innovations in land and monetary reform.”
I had the pleasure of speaking with Stephanie about her latest book, intentional communities, and the return to a local economy.
