Episode Highlight

12:26 - Professional Dimensions is my theory of change right now. I`m here because I really believe that the time we are in, what PD offers and has the potential to offer based on its history and how it was founded and what it was founded for, needs to be the answer.

18:51 - The effort has to be shaped by those who are most directly impacted by the injustice and lead by those with personal proximity to the problem.

25:35 - Being able to know and learn and know what to do when you find yourself in that situation is just as important as trying to change the system so that it doesn`t happen and it actually does change the system overtime.

38:53 - My members give me hope because I`ve seen it, I`ve seen so much success in these things that I share and that`s why I can share them with so much confidence, I would not steer folks wrong.
