In honor of the release of “Resilience: How the COVID-19 Pandemic Made Us Wiser and Stronger,” the Resilience Initiative celebrated that the sun never really sets on resilience through three events over the course of one day. The second of these events was held at 7:30pm London time on Tuesday, June 8.
In this episode, you’ll hear the conversations from that session. Dr. Michael Gordon, Associate Professor of Spanish at the University of North Carolina Wilmington, reads his essay “Teaching in Times of Covid: From ‘Landing the Plane’ to ‘Reaching for the Stars’ and Nina Justin, a commercial lawyer and media producer, will read her essay “Surrendering with Gratitude.”
Thank you to Diana Wu David, author of Future Proof, for reading the foreword from the book.
