Many thanks to Theater Rudolstadt for hosting their “Hope vs. Chaos” event during the US election and inviting me to participate as one of their speakers.
It was a pleasure to be a part of this celebration, although the results of the election were not quite what we had hoped. What a highlight in what turned out to be a very difficult week for the world. Thank you MDR Thüringen for the lovely video.
