Mindfulness, compassion and social change | Rhonda Magee

I have the great honour of welcoming Professor Rhonda McGee, a pioneering voice in mindfulness, compassion, and social justice, to discuss how mindfulness can be a tool for social change. In this enlightening conversation, we explore the importance of care and compassion, the inner work required to address racism and inequality, and the ways mindfulness can transform individuals and communities. Professor McGee, author of 'The Inner Work of Racial Justice,' shares insights on how traditional ideas about identity and hyper-individualisation can cause suffering, and emphasises the need for interconnectedness. We also discuss systemic issues and the historical context of racism, along with the role of mindfulness and compassion practices in bringing awareness and fostering courage to address these deep-rooted challenges.TIME STAMPS:00:00 Introduction to Compassion in a T-Shirt00:14 Meet Professor Rhonda McGee00:44 The Intersection of Mindfulness, Compassion, and Social Justice01:54 Exploring Conventional Ideas and Identity09:37 Understanding Racism, Inequality, and Privilege14:38 The Historical Context of Racism in the United States30:08 The Role of Mindfulness in Addressing Social Injustice45:42 The Importance of Inner Work and Self-Compassion53:44 Ethics, Morality, and Compassion in Practice01:01:46 Upcoming Projects and Final ThoughtsTARGETED PLAYLIST LINK: Compassion in a T-Shirt: In Session LINKS: Professor Rhonda Magee's website https://rhondavmagee.com/ Professor Rhonda Magee at University of San Francisco https://www.usfca.edu/law/faculty/rhonda-magee The Inner Work of Racial Justice: Healing Ourselves and Transforming Our Communities Through Mindfulness https://www.amazon.com.au/Inner-Work-Racial-Justice-Transforming/dp/059308392XSay hi on social:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drstansteindlTwitter: https://twitter.com/StanSteindlInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr_stan_steindl/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stan-steindl-150a5264/Website: https://www.stansteindl.com/YouTube Video URL: https://youtu.be/K6yh3LRbFhUAffiliate Disclaimer:Note this description contains affiliate links that allow you to find the items mentioned in this video and support the channel at no cost to you.
