Join Host Tiokasin Ghosthorse as he welcomes back two guests—Kenn Orphan and Ukumbwa Sauti in an hourlong discussion about the fear that is currently gripping people and holding everyone in place across the planet. The three will discuss the impact on economies among other impacts and offer their thoughts on a post-Corona Virus recovery and the possibilities for a global awakening. KENN ORPHAN is an artist, writer, radical nature lover, weary but committed activist, and hospice social worker. Kenn writes about art and culture, socio-economic injustice, geopolitical issues, and the existential threats we collectively face from corporate capitalism, the war industry, climate change, and an ever imperiled biosphere. His work focuses on the desperate need for a global paradigm shift that fosters compassion for and solidarity with the suffering of humanity and the countless other species with whom we share this precious planet. Kenn blogs at kennorphan.com. The intent of his blog is to bear witness to the dire events unfolding around us without any pretense of false hope and to share insights and reflections through the transformative lens of solidarity.
