Manifesto IV Healing a Violent World

Manifesto IV Healing A Violent World: The Will to Heal and Survive in an Apocalyptic World integrates poetry, visual art, and commentary in the timely reflection on the importance of honoring and preserving the natural world in the Western world's own attempt to heal amidst COVID-19 and ecocide. In this Manifesto, Dr. Richard F. Mollica, Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and Director of the Harvard Program in Refugee Trauma (HPRT) at Massachusetts General Hospital, draws our attention to the deadly consequences that the ongoing destruction of nature brings on our relationship with medicine and healing. This Manifesto brings great hope as it celebrates the powerful healing power of nature and the interconnectedness of all living creatures.
