A crash course in changing the world.
In 2020 I will turn 28. I will be in a small town in rural Africa, working in a metal shop I made with the help of the community. I will be teaching the community to use the tools and the resources at hand to solve the problems they have. The shop will be open to anyone to use in return for whatever they can give, money, food, labor, etc. The community will use this to create things like windmills to create electricity, tools to help plant and harvest crops, better stoves, pumps, and anything else they can come up with.
Anything else they can come up with. That is important, for I in turn will be learning from the community. I will learn their culture, their language, what they have, what they need, and what they create. And in time I will train people in the community who desire it to take over and run the shop themselves, and I will move to another area and do it over again, but this time with everything I learned from the last time.
