COMPASSION AS A TOOL FOR LIBERATION AND RACIAL JUSTICE
Oct. 27 | Lama Rod Owens
In this talk, Lama Rod Owens reaches into his deep knowledge of Buddhist teachings and a lifetime of commitment to racial justice movements to help us think about compassion as a practice more intentional than simple gestures of benevolence or charity. By “sitting with our discomforts” about the state of things in the world, our families, and our communities, we can confront the traumas that harm us and speak the truths to one another that lead to healing and liberation.
