| THE MAKING OF A RADICAL: A Political Autobiography. Nearing. Scott Nearing lived one hundred years, from 1883 to 1983. Early on he made his name as an opponent of child labor and military imperialism. Fired from university jobs for his independence of mind, Nearing became a feelance lecturer and writer, traveling widely through Depression-era and post-war America to speak as a social critic and humanitarian - a socialist with a lower case "s." Concluding that it would be better to be poor in the country than in New York City, he and his wife Helen moved to Vermont and began their life-long experiment in self-reliant living, progenitors of the "back to the land" movement. They devised the policy of allocating one third of the day for "bread work" (livelihood), one third for "head work" (intellectual endeavors), and one third for service to the world community. Inspiration for all, regardless of how you spend your days... #SPC-75.
