Sea Change is an intimate exploration of a young life lived on the edge of radical hope, change, and possibility in the 1960s in California. It rekindles the spirit of the Summer of Love when anything was possible, and idealism was the air we breathed. The health of our society continues to demand en- gagement with issues of social justice, cultural diversity, and environmental responsibility. This memoir is a call to action to succeeding generations to keep the dream alive. There is still much to be done.http://matrikapress.com/dorothy-may-emerson/- - -Dorothy May Emerson is a semi-retired Unitarian Universalist minister and writer, currently living in Massachusetts with her spouse, Donna Clifford.A native Californian, her experiencesin the Sixties helped shape the rest of her work and life.
