9/21/2020 0 Comments Interview: John Miles, iWorker When he saw the people in Venezuela, suffering under the dictatorship there, it touch John Miles, a digital entrepreneur. He partner up with another entrepreneur and they decided the best way to help was to find a way to employ these educated, talented and hard-working people. He also paid them in US dollars because the Venezuelan currency would lose it's value very quickly and people could not provide for themselves and their families. He came up with the idea for iWorker, which pairs talent like web design, social media skills, etc. to business who need these skills. Soon he had 7,000 companies on board and over 350 skilled workers, some of whom are now employed by these companies as regular employees via Zoom. His work enabled many of the workers to leave Venezuela to the safety of other countries to live a safe and normal life.

Interview: Dr. Shawne Duperon, Project Forgive
.From an abusive childhood to TV producer with 6 Emmy awards to nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize, Dr. Shawne Duperon demonstrates the real power of true forgiveness. She was catapulted into fame when she did a short video, The Apology, now used by world leaders internationally. She brings the tools she created in the Apology to her work with corporations like General Motors . It's a 3 step process which challenges you to forgive someone even if they haven't apologized.
In Project Forgive, Dr Shawne, as she likes to be called, focused on teach teachers the tools of forgiveness because they influence so many children many of whom have been abused or are living in less than ideal situations. She did this rather than work with children directly because of the pervading influence of teachers on their students every year. And, it's working! Her insight, clarity, focus, determination, understanding and kindness as seen in this interview demonstrates the world leader in forgiveness that she is.

Rich Trotta had a professor who taught education was much more than academics. That idea stuck with him but he wasn't sure what to do with it until he listened to a tape on a long drive back from DC. It was on emotional intelligence. Rich thought that schools teach cognitive development but not moral or character development. At that moment the two concepts came together and he knew what he wanted to bring to education. Finally, in 2013 it all culminated in the establishing of The Center for Citizenship and Social Responsibility, bringing together both cognitive education and emotional intelligence and giving students something valuable they can take forward into their lives as adults who contributed to society and the world.
The mission of the Center for Citizenship and Social Responsibility is to develop responsibie leader/citizens who will
be positive contributers to society and will work to comabat import aosical issues and becomes leaders in our society. Over the past four years, over 1,500 students have particpated in CCSR mini-courses, clubs and activities, and mosst importantly, in communiity projects. At each school there is a CCSR advisor who guides students in the development of Project Based Learning acrivities, individually or in small groups of 2 or 3 students.

Interview: Ferial Pearson, The Secret Kindness Agents
.Moved by the Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy, Ferial wondered if a simple act of kindness could change a life. She thought of the school where she taught and the students she guided every day and wondered, what would happen if we started secretly carrying out small acts of kindness in school?
The idea behind Secret Kindness Agents, which Pearson details in her TEDx Talk and in a book she has written about the program, is both simple and profound: to perform an anonymous act of kindness every day and, thereby, spread kindness throughout the community. Anonymity is a key element of the program, as it shifts the focus from the self to others and thus allows the “agents” of kindness to remove themselves from the equation—in effect, to become selfless, which is the DNA of kindness.
Ferial Pearson, a native of Nairobi, Kenya, is a national award-winning high school teacher and college instructor. For her dedicated work in education and human rights, she has earned the National Education Association’s Virginia Uribe Award for Creative Leadership in Human Rights in 2012, and the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network’s Educator of the Year Respect Award in 2011. She is an Instructor and Instructional Coach in the Teacher Education Department at the University of Nebraska Omaha

Interview: Ian Thomson, Ocean Crusaders, Australia
Looking into the eyes of a sea turtle that had died from ingesting a plastic bag, started Ian Thomson on a quest to clean up the oceans. It turned his attention away from sailing races and into starting a non-profit cleaning waterways and the ocean in Australia. His mission includes educating children and the need for cleaning up plastic pollution.
He empowers children by organizing them into clean-up crews, giving them the direct experience of putting knowledge into practice to make a difference. His foundation is growing and he now has branched out to Fiji.
an says, "I am passionate about educating people of the issues our oceans face so founded Ocean Crusaders as a tool to do this. It morphed into an online education program for young children and we now have an additional focus on beach and waterway cleaning in SE Queensland. Every day we have a choice of what we buy and choosing items in plastic is taking it's toll on our oceans. What you do today will effect tomorrow so make a choice to say no to as much plastic as you can, reuse it if you have to use it and recycle it when done. Clean Oceans make us all winners!!!!

Interview: Cleo Scot Brown, History Matters Institute
This is Cleo’s experience: At seven, she was in the car with her father when he was shot for trying to get the right to vote. At nine, she was watching her father pull up Klan crosses from the end of the road to their home. At ten, she was hiding while her older brothers and sisters did target practice in order to defend the house if the family was attacked at night.
At 11, she was helping adults learn how to pass the multi-part citizenship test required to register to vote. She got to become a little human guinea pig in a school integration experiment at age 12, an experience that proved to be more traumatic than the constant threat of being killed. And then at 17, she was off to experience the black power movement at the predominately Black Grambling State University and at 21, affirmative action quotas and some racial healing at General Motors in Anderson, Indiana. Hers and her father’s direct personal experiences, combined with a lack of bitterness and anger, provide the rare but necessary combination that moves people to introspection and action.
"The purpose of my talks & my writing: Using history to create insight and introspection that leads to change. My primary focus areas are race relations and voting. What needs to change to make this a more equitable culture, especially in the South in the United States? This hugely impacts Charleston, South Carolina as the first port of entry for slaves taken from Africa. Many have said that the healing must take place in Charleston for that very reason. How can we wake people up to prejudicial laws and cultural norms that exclude African Americans or view them as less than which is woven into the very fabric of the culture.
Cleo is the author of Racelology 101 and Witness To The Truth , published by the University of South Carolina Press. "Witness to the Truth" was Ouachita Parish Library's 2008 Summer Read selection and an Essence.com best seller. Raceology 101 is the 2018 1st Place Winner in the Federation of Press Women's Non-Fiction category. Celo is Race Relations Strategist and founder of the History Matters Institute.

Interview: Abeer Seikaly, Jordan, Designing Woven Huts for Refugees
Abeer Seikaly is a young Jordanian architect, artist, designer and cultural producer recognize internationally and has been featured on several global and local media platformst becuase of her innovation, "Weaving a Home" that was shortlisted for the 2012 Lexus Design Award. Abeer created the woven houses in response to the current and increasing refugee crisis and want to proved a shelter that would provide protection from the elements but also be a place of well-being by its design and use of fabric.
According to Abeer, architecture is not about the building itself but more about getting into it and experienceing its "metaphysical nature with time." Disaster shelters have been made from a wide range of materials, but Abeer turned to solar-absorbing fabric as her choice of materials thus creating woven shelters powerd by the sun. These were inspired because of her family's history which included the nomadic life of the Bedouin. These shelters can be folded and taken to new locations to help refugees in many areas of the world. To test whether her woven huts would provide shelter under extreme weather, Abeer took on up on Mt. Everest and spent the night. The hut kept her warm enought to survive and it also kept out snow and fierce wind of the mountain. In this case it meanst that those who shelter in the woven huts well be safe from severe weather whether it is snow and freezing temperatures or desert heat and sand. Because the structrues are made of wool, the natural lanolin protects against damp, rain, snow, heat and stops even sand from blowing into it. The design also keeps it at a constant temperature and a shaded interior. They are the perfect blend of safety, practicality and beautiy. Abeer spoke about well-being as being essential even for those in extreme circumstances.

Interview: Marshall Saunders, The Citizens Climate Lobby
“After I had given just a few talks about the climate, I realized that the actions I was suggesting to my listeners to take, while essential, were not a match for the problem. I realized that anything they intended to do would be swamped by what the government did or did not do. I realized that ordinary people like me would have to organize, educate ourselves, give up our hopelessness and powerlessness, and gain the skills to be effective with our government.”
And that is exactly what he did when he founded The Citizen's Climate Lobby with over 551 groups all over the world. Their purpose is to involve people in the issue that faces all of us across party lines and across countries. This is a planetary issue of survival. As Marshall states: We must stop putting carbon, greenhouse gasses, into our atmosphere and we must do it right now. There is now a bill before Congress, thanks to Marshall's and all of the members of The Citizen's Climate Lobby. The lobby's efforts are being endorsed by media, corporations, unions and concerned citizens. People are paying attention as they come together in the varous chapters. This is a further example that change is a grassroots effort and people are finally beginning to realize that it is all too real and together we must do something about it.

Interview: Jamie Margolin, 17 Year Old founder Zero Hour
When she was 16 years old, Jamie Margolin organized the Climate Change Strike where young people all over the world participated, in order to wake people up to the very real and present danger of ignoring climate change. The anthem of the strike was that their generation would inherit a world that was so polluted and damaged from human actions that they would not be able to even raise healthy children when their time came and they too, would be living in a world barely habitable. That was only the beginning. Jamie then founded Zero Hour which is filled with young people who want to make this a better, healthier world for all.
"The mission of the Zero Hour movement is to center the voices of diverse youth in the conversation around climate and environmental justice. Zero Hour is a youth-led movement creating entry points, training, and resources for new young activists and organizers (and adults who support our vision) wanting to take concrete action around climate change. Together, we are a movement of unstoppable youth organizing to protect our rights and access to the natural resources and a clean, safe, and healthy environment that will ensure a livable future where we not just survive, but flourish." But as Jamie pointed out most of the members of Zero Hour are not of voting age so they need the adults aroudn them to step up and vote local and national leaders who will carry on their work and make this a healthier planet. Zero Hour has recently gone to Amazone headquarters on the West Coast to ask them to make their delivery trucks either hybrid or electric since there are now so many of them on the road daily. Zero Hour has created a Climate Strike for September 2019 and is participating in the UN event of youth for climate change.
