what is a reimaginelution?

A REImaginelution is not just a strategy.

It is not a trend.
It is a bold invitation to be, think, build, and lead differently.

 

Founded by Dr. David W. Robinson-Morris—scholar, educator, philosopher, and systems thinker—The REImaginelution is a movement grounded in one urgent truth: Imagination is our most powerful tool for transformation.

 

Born from the lived wisdom of Dr. David W. Robinson-Morris—philosopher, educator, spiritual guide, and equity strategist—The REImaginelution is a movement powered by one radical belief: Imagination is the gateway to liberation.

 

More important than knowledge.
More enduring than power.
More transformative than policy.

 

Imagination is how we recover what systems tried to make us forget—our humanity, our dignity, our capacity to dream the world anew. To say another way, imagination allows us to break with the constraints of the present, rethink entrenched systems, and actively design a world that reflects our highest values and shared potential.

 

The Philosophy Behind the Practice

Drawing deeply from the philosophies of Ubuntu and Buddhism, The REImaginelution understands that the mind that created the crisis cannot be the mind that heals it.

 

We must think differently.
Be differently.
Do differently—together.

 

Systems of oppression work by narrowing the boundaries of thought—by training us to believe that change is too costly, too complex, or simply out of reach.
They shrink our visions.
They distort our relationships.
They restrict our belief in what is possible.

But we know otherwise.

 

We believe imagination is not escapism—it is insurgency not wishful thinking. 
It is a spiritual technology and framework for innovation.
(Re)engaging the imagination is how we remember our wholeness and rebuild the world by breaking cycles and building meaningful, equitable alternatives.

 

A Revolution of Thought, A Renaissance of Being

Revolutions, always rooted in love, do not begin as militaristic battles.
They are wars of ideas—of stories, structures, systems, and spirit.

Generative resistance against inherited harm, against ossified institutions and the internalized oppression that convinces us we cannot dream bigger. 

 

The REImaginelution is a revolution of ideas—a disruption of outdated ways of working, organizing, and relating. It is a creative stance against:

• Systems that no longer serve

• Narratives that restrict possibility

• Practices that sustain inequity

 

Through Imaginative Inquiry and an equity-centered lens, we help leaders and institutions move beyond what has always been—toward what could be.

 

As Toni Morrison reminds us in Beloved:

“The only grace we can have is the grace we can imagine.”

 

We believe the same holds true for justice.
For healing.
For liberation.

For building futures that are equitable, inclusive, and thriving.
