Having recently cracked the 10K membership milestone we are now racing toward 11K Undergrounders! To all new members from all around the world... A warm welcome to y'all. And do feel free to have your say in any one of our many hundreds (thousands?) of underground knowledge discussion threads.
And those of you who are authors of 'alternative-thinking' books don't forget to add YOUR book to our ‘Alternative Thinking Books’ discussion thread.
Seems like it was just the other day we cracked the 11,000 membership mark. Oh, that's right...it was. (April 16). Now I see we've topped 11,100 already.It appears there is a thirst for underground knowledge out there.
Hey undergrounders!I really like this group and - disclaimer - I'd like to share something I've been working on for readers like us who want to find reads based on what people who inspire us are sharing:
My name is Jessica Mansourati and I live in Stockholm, Sweden. I am currently building a social reading platform for our generation of readers, in order to make reading more socially engaging and easy to interact around.
The purpose is to inspire more people to read more books because of the good effects it has on our brains, mental health and for society in general.
We want to make it possible for people to take part of what their network, as well as people they are inspired by, are reading.
I think so many of are the type of people whose reading others would love take part of and I’m reaching out to see if any of you are down for a short chat next week to tell me more about your reading habits and preferences? As we’re just starting out, we’re trying to learn about what our potential users might want in the app so that we can create it together.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this :) I really appreciate it and would appreciate it even more if you’re ok with me giving you a quick call to ask a few questions!
Meanwhile, feel free to try the app out as it looks right now (www.bookself.app)

Hi Jessica, That's fantastic news! I do so love your wonderful idea.
Here's a fun novel of intense laughter that's sure to tickle you truly pink, and's just right for your super app:
"The Maverick Agenda,"
For anyone considering university, this is ONE HILARIOUS GOLDMINE sure to make their day. The ending is particularly exquisite.
Find it on Amazon. Enjoy! :-)
I went underground at CERN, not when they were actually colliding matter and anti-matter particles of course but...they are creating mini blackholes and they say they will disappear.They will not. This book predicts what will happen, and frankly give it one more year and we are all dead. Underground or not.
Something to Tell You
What a terrifying revelation this is (or might be...). I've wondered since I saw that Hadren Collider (it was terrifying) what damage it was doing to our planet. Well, I sure won't sleep tonight!
I undergrounders, hope you are all doing well? I am new to the group and I can see that it is focused on social-political issues that are ignored and deserve mention. I have recently read this bookThe Gods of Women Have Gone Mad
It a good book that educates the reader about the ills of female circumcision, which has affected over 200 million women and it is still practised in 30 countries around the world.
Have a read about this practice in this fictional novel and then do your research about the topic,
I think we should support the effort to put an end to this practice and more people should know about it.
Cheers,
Alice
Out of over 10,000 groups on Goodreads, Underground Knowledge is now in the top 40: https://www.goodreads.com/group/popul...Way to go Undergrounders!
And this comes only a month after this group cracked the 12,000 members milestone (https://morcanbooksandfilms.com/2019/...) confirming our status as one of the fastest-growing discussion groups in the world!
Hello freinds,My name is Ahmad. Originally from India living in the UK. Because of this worldwide corona pandemic I have lots of free time therefore I have decided to revive my old passion of reading. I'm interesting in philosophy, religion, politics, Sufism, poetry, geography, science and a lot of other things. I am fluent in Urdu and English and I'm a student of Turkish and Arabic.
I Hope that everyone is doing well!

Group membership topped 15,900 today so we are closing in fast on the 16K milestone! Hope y'all doing well in this crazy era of the so-called New Normal.
Holy Moly! I had no idea this group is SO BIG! LOL... I guess there's a lot of readers in this world. (Duh.... :) )Thank you for your update! What does this mean for our Good Reads group... anything planned... not sure this group does anything "as a group"... Hard to imagine a group this large having a party at the beach or even in town. LOL - thank you for the update on "us". :) Bonnie in Longview, Washington
Thanks Bonnie. We have nothing planned to celebrate the milestone... except keep on breathing. (If we're still breathing everything else is bonus, as someone great once said). Let me know if you have a better idea. I know breathing isn't very exciting... unless you're out of air of course. Sorry, I'm rambling again. Must be medication time...
Congrats to all 16,000 Undergrounders. That's a membership milestone we, the founders of this one-of-a-kind group, are proud of.

I don't have a smart phone so trying to get telegram on laptop...lol (not very IT savvy). managed to download but can't seem to get further, think I should have left off the 0 in front of phone no but too many tries? will try later fingers crossed.🤦♀️
Hi Undergrounders, I am keen to get what has been buried underground in terms of rampant child abuse & the subsequent damage to their brains brought up into the spotlight. It has pushed me to the outlier position as there are many in positions of power and authority who want children & adults ignorant about their brains and thus merely sheeple when they could be critical thinkers.
I have a new book that speaks to this manipulation. The Bullied Brain: Heal Your Scars and Restore Your Health.
I have been writing a blog about my brutal experience trying to blow the whistle on this tragedy. It's called "How I Became an Unlikely Whistleblower." It starts at #1...https://www.bulliedbrain.com/blog.
It's time for a revolution.
Thanks for caring and thanks James for creating this group and allowing me to share.
Best,
Jennifer Fraser

My sincere apologies, Lance ! My compliments to you also - plus an extra one to you for raising such a fine son 👏🏻









We are officially one of the biggest groups on Goodreads and also one of the fastest growing ones.
Thanks so much to everyone who has joined recently...And also to those who have posted and shared their own "underground knowledge" since the group's inception. Your membership and participation is all contributing to a vast body of hard-to-find information in this global think tank.
I originally set up this group in collaboration with my father, Lance Morcan, a former journalist and newspaper editor, just as a little experiment...Simply to see if anyone else would be interested in citizen journalism or wanted to freely discuss all those topics that mainstream media almost never covers.
We have been pleasantly surprised by the huge interest from members all over the world in debating important and underreported issues of our era.
Let's keep it up and ruffle some feathers on the world stage :)
Be seein' you in the Underground,
James
