I am just back from Haiti where I volunteered at St. Damien’s Pediatric Hospital which serves the the poorest of the poor.
One of the patients is Peterson, a boy who lives at St. Damien’s because he is chained to an oxygen concentrator. It’s a big machine which needs to stay plugged into electricity.
On Wednesday December 7th, for one night only, we hosted Ron Suskind, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and best-selling author, in conversation with former Treasury Secretary Paul O’Neill and Jesse LaGreca, Occupy Wall Street activist and blogger at The Daily Kos. They discussed the fall and bailout of Wall Street, the perils of speaking truth to power, and the tough choices ahead for America.
The conversation was recorded on FORA.tv, and can be watched here.

It has been awhile, and much has happened since my last newsletter. The biggest news is that I am now the Program Director at the Urban Zen, Donna Karan’s Foundation in New York.
