Miami, Florida ( USA ): Transforming the world is alive and well in South Florida! This was evident when more than 40 distinguished journalists, artists and social activists came together over a breakfast gathering organized by the non-profit The Peace Studio. This event was held at Big Brothers Big Sisters in Miami.
The Peace Studio Board Members BK Meredith, an Independent Media Producer/Host, and POLITICO’S Global News Editor John Yearwood organized this program. BK Marianne, who is Vice President, Continuing Education at Big Brothers Big Sisters, helped host and facilitate. The attendees were delighted to meet and hear from The Peace Studio Executive Director Thomas West who came in from Boston. His message: it is journalists and artists who can help bring about significant positive change in society through the stories they tell and the work that they create. Other participants in the program included BK Shireen who led a meditation and BK Donna who was part of the organizing committee. The 21-year-old non-profit Images and Voices of Hope recently merged with The Peace Studio.
The event was extremely successful, with more to come in the near future!
Following the program, BK Waddy hosted a lunch at the BK Miami Center for John Yearwood, Thomas West and Meredith Porte, which was followed by meditation.
