Michael Pistininzi - Lane Reflection

I really liked the idea of communitas. I feel like this way of living needs to be more accepted by our culture. American culture is very individualistic and we lose touch with our communities. I think this is a huge reason why people ignore lots of key environmental issues that have come up in recent decades. Without a community to identify with people have no connection to the place they live and are able to just ignore problems that arise. I believe that local agricultural based communities are key to sustainable living and culture.
