Episode Description
Every day we hear about politicians, communities, and people being fearful of others. We hear about the rise of the extreme right wing. We hear about the rise of a new generation of activists. We talk about closing our borders to immigrants and to trade. We hear fear. We seek something better for ourselves and our grandchildren. In this show, we talk about Rotary International, Rotary Friendship Exchanges, Rotary International Student Exchanges, RotarAct and building possibilities through collaborating internationally. One of the objectives of Rotary is; "The advancement of international understanding, goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional persons united in the ideal of service." With our Rotary leadership guests from France (Elisabeth) and Germany (Florian), we learn about eh projects each are involved in and why they commit themselves to Service Above Self. And why we choose to break down walls of misunderstanding. Now let's work together.
