About Me (Jeremy John)

Sometime in high school I accidentally ate the red pill instead of the more harmless blue one, and I've been an activist ever since.

In 2003 I spent six months in prison for civil disobedience while working to close the School of the Americas, converting to Christianity while imprisoned. I currently coordinate the Crabgrass Christians Initiativeat the Quixote Center, building grassroots alternative food economies in faith institutions that embody the beloved community.

I am a totally untrained and unqualified theologian working to build a praxis-informed Christianity that can disrupt our money-driven society with a Christ-formed "economy" of love that trickles up from the base. You can read more at http://theoccupychurch.org .

I contribute to the Good Men Project, Geez, Sojourners, the Huffington Post and Red Letter Christians, blogging here.

I'm a poet in process of writing a dystopian science fiction novel.

I love to fix broken machines and to love the broken people who are outside the normal's pale.
