The Fellowship of the Ring - 'Bend Not Break' Version | Frankly 58

The Fellowship of the Ring - 'Bend Not Break' Version | Frankly 58

In this Frankly, Nate recasts his favorite book series, the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkien, with some speculative "archetypes" of our human world grouped by various timelines. The eventual reduction in energy and material accessibility will likely alter the archetypes that we're familiar with today - perhaps to become something not helpful to larger society. What categories of human archetypes in the future will have the potential to best influence their communities and the Earth? What will the most powerful among us choose when it comes to protecting their (monetary, temporary) wealth vs using it towards prosocial collective responses? Finally, and most importantly what archetypes will form a new Fellowship of humans to 'bring the ring to Mordor' during humanity's 'Bend not Break' moment? Which archetype do you resonate with? Are there others?
