To Get To The Other Side - Intro Trailer

What will it take to get to the other side of this pandemic moment? A lot of people are ready to cross the road and get...where exactly? If it wasn’t clear already, the recent uprisings make it clear that it can’t be “back to normal.” Like so many have wondered, “why?” about the proverbial chicken, we’ll pause to look for better questions about the crossings we face. Getting to the other side well will take some honest questions and some new thinking about what life on the other side. It will also take good company! A variety of Fabric folks will curate podcast episodes highlighting leading voices (via podcasts, TED, etc) on what could await us if we re-imagine the future rather than re-create the past when this is all over. Join us via your favorite podcast player starting June 28
Voices heard are from The Great Realisation (Tom Foolery)and Arundhati Roy.
