“I am a narrative choreographer, profoundly influenced by the theatrical masks of tragedy and comedy. I have choreographed works that deal with personal, social, political and spiritual transformation for forty-five years.

At the age of seventy-seven, I am horrified at the continued proliferation of weapons of death, the alarming human birth-rate, the financial inequality among people, the devastation of much of the environment and the imminently dangerous climate crisis.

If human beings continue on this path, often spurred on by ignorant and dangerous demi-gods, this will represent the greatest act of immorality and stupidity that a species could commit.

By the end of the century thousands of species will be extinct, and millions of our own dead.

As artists, we understand the relationship between new ideas and creations and the evolution of life itself – SPEAK OUT, by any means possible, as I am doing here.

It is time for all people who believe the earth is not only the cradle of life but the womb itself, to act.

As indigenous peoples throughout the world know, the earth is a sacred place and we are its custodians.”–

-Danny Grossman
