I came across Betty Hart's Tedx Talk a few months ago and it resonated with me deeply. I highly recommend you listen to it before or after this episode! https://www.ted.com/talks/betty_hart_canceling_cancel_culture_with_compassionTo purchase tickets to Betty's play in Creede, CO go here https://creederep.org/show/iliad/You can find Betty on Instagram here https://www.instagram.com/actorbetty/Cancel culture generally refers to celebrities, but what about the people in our inner circle we are cancelling due to ideological differences? What if instead of removing people from our lives, we extended compassion to them? In this moving talk, Betty Hart shares a poignant story of her father and the unlikely friendship of Ruth Bader Ginsberg and Antonin Scalia. Betty advocates for curiosity, diversity, empathy, and valuing the whole of a person rather than individual aspects. Betty Hart is an actor, director, facilitator and woman of faith whose mission is to help create space for necessary, and sometimes challenging, conversations.In an era where canceling is so prevalent. Betty Hart encourages us to call others in. This doesn't mean to avoid accountability, but to hopefully facilitate the space for reparation, connection, growth, and healing.
