Undisciplined is an odyssey into possibility. Challenging us to break free from limiting strictures and structures, it encourages readers to envision just futures and reflect on the inner transformation required to become the custodians of those worlds.

In a profound and heartfelt offering, Melz Owusu delves into the stifling impact of the education system on imagination. They probe alternative, deeply spiritual connections to knowledge, and the pursuit of new ways of being as acts of remembrance of a common past. Seamlessly transitioning between intellectual discourse, personal reflections, and spiritual contemplations, Melz navigates the ‘undisciplining’ of mind and spirit, guiding readers towards the healing and liberatory potential of the heart and the imagination.

Undisciplined is not a prescriptive manual but an invitation. Freedom takes many forms, and this book is intended as one route of exploration: a mind-opening and perspective-shifting appraisal of how we might imagine a more just and liberated world, and the path to accessing its beauty.
