If you dream of a world where teaching is world changing, you need to watch this video. Zoe Weil has a vision of teaching children how to make the world they long for, a world where justice rules and harm to people and animals and our planet is not disallowed, because it doesn't have to be. Children grow up learning to live without harming others, learn to share, learn the joy of being creative and fulfilling their potential in a non zero-sum world.
If nothing else, it will remind you of how stifling our current world view is.
Thanks so much, Lucy, for sharing Zoe's video. We at the Institute for Humane Education (Zoe's organization) truly believe that such a world is possible, especially if we work together :)
