あらすじ・解説
Professor Steve Szeghi spent his formative years, (from 15 to 25 years of age), with the United Farm Workers Union under the tutelage of Cesar Chavez, an activist farm worker, labor leader and civil rights proponent. Professor Szeghi learned important lessons on how to create transformation through acts of nonviolent civil disobedience so farm workers could receive fair wages and benefits. During this period of engagement, he discovered the poet within himself through the awakening of powerful feelings of compassion and solidarity that he felt with the farm workers. He discusses his more recent involvement with the Indigenous Peoples, primarily the Navajo, that deepened his appreciation for our sacred connection to the earth, and the respectful relationship which we must maintain towards it, and all life forms. A professor of economics for many years, his life experiences have infused his teachings with the importance of values, compassion, and maintaining right relationships with each other, and our precious environment.
