Jul 23, 2020•27 min•Season 1Ep. 12
Episode description
Peter Buffett is a musician, author, philanthropist and co-president of NoVo Foundation. With his varied background, he presents his thoughts on “What could possibly go right?” including:
- That we are in a rebirth moment, though this beauty and change can be a painful process.
- That we are “a species out of context” and the pandemic is changing our relationship to education, food, neighbors; everything is up for grabs.
- That homeschooling has children and parents alike reconsidering what education and learning can be.
- That there’s a rising wider awareness around the inequality of many systems.
- That those with privilege should be listening closely to others with fewer opportunities and move resources towards new imaginative spaces and a more equitable world.
- That in considering the question of “What could possibly go right?”, we need to think about whose version of “right” we’re looking at.
- That we need to hold space for vulnerability and recognition that we are all flawed human beings, working to heal from backgrounds with ancestral trauma - a beautiful but slow and sometimes painful process.
