Description

In a world that’s unraveling from climate disruption and gaping inequality, another climate crisis confronts us: the climate of hate and othering. Award-winning scholar and educator Valarie Kaur says to overcome racism and nationalism, we must not succumb to rage and grief. As someone who has spent much of her life challenging horrific injustices and intolerance, Kaur learned the lesson that historical nonviolent change-makers understood: social movements must be grounded in an ethic of love. She founded the ⁠Revolutionary Love Project⁠, and has emerged as one of the most important voices of the American Sikh community, and a highly influential faith leader on the national stage.


Valarie Kaur, born into a family of Sikh farmers who settled in California in 1913, is a seasoned civil rights activist, award-winning filmmaker, lawyer, faith leader, and founder of the Revolutionary Love Project, which seeks to champion love as a public ethic and wellspring for social action.




The theme music is co-written by the Baka Forest People of Cameroon and Baka Beyond, from the album East to West. Find out more at ⁠globalmusicexchange.org⁠.
