Tara Geer - What Do We Know? Exploring Non-Western Approaches to Wisdom

Tara Geer, Program Director of Commonweal’s Visual Thinking Strategies program in conversation with host Susan Grelock Yusem Around the world, people understand life and each other in vastly different ways. In "What Do We Know?," we will delve into profound ways of knowing often dismissed by Western thought, including intuition, artistic expression, empathy, and the wisdom of dreams. We will explore diverse, non-Western approaches to knowledge formation including interconnection, collective well-being, intuition, and other ways of knowing. Join us live for three 60-minute conversations followed by 1/2-hour shared community inquiry that could include breakout groups, writing prompts and sharing, demonstrations, or other processes. Hosted by Commonweal Narrative Director Susan Grelock Yusem.
