“Agents of Change in an Interdependent World” offers a new and updated view of the concept of “interdependence” for our times. Through a keynote address, a moderated panel discussion, and a performance, activists and leaders will address the importance of what the late scholar Ben Barber coined “interdependency” in the light of current circumstances. The circumstances we are living in suggest connecting not only ‘’globally,” but also across other pressing, emerging, threatening barriers as well.

Keynote: Oskar Eustis. Moderator: Laura Flanders. Panelists: Mohsin Mohi Ud Din, Ruchira Gupta, Arturo O’Farrill, Cristal Chanelle Truscott. Closing performance: from Voices of A People’s History of the United States Featuring Staceyann Chin, Martha Redbone, Wallace Shawn, Anthony Arnove, and Shawn Touriz (from Maxine Greene High School for Imaginative Inquiry.)
