Since 1994, Scott Silber has worked as a multi-lingual organizer in social, environmental, and economic justice campaigns throughout the US and Latin America. His labor union organizing efforts have spanned dozens of cities among immigrant rights and industrial organizing campaigns with workers in the Justice for Janitors campaign, as well as in public & social service, hospitals, construction sites, slaughterhouses, airports, office buildings, and collective farms. He is the co-founder and Director of Converge, a Colorado-based non-profit organization creating local models of community-rooted social, environmental, and economic justice reference points independent of corporate culture or neo-colonial control, and interconnecting them to links in a global chain of similar, community-based efforts. He aims to add his human rights campaign experiences as a student, community, and labor organizer in solidarity with the most exploited or economically impoverished regions --from American Indian communities, to landless Brazilian farm workers-- to the international solution for a survivable and sustainable human evolution. Currently, he is developing a PhD program researching the contempory starvation of the body as well as the soul, and the educational role of ancient indigenous spiritual wisdom & music for the modern global networks uniting to heal and feed that which hungers most.
