Beach Walk 231 OTR - Clearing Up Prejudice

I like to look past the wires and street signs in favor of the snow-capped mountains in the distance.For those of you who are new here, I usually walk the beach with my dog Lexi in Hawai’i. But I am on the road traveling for my job, so you get to come along with me! I like to think of Beach Walks as much as an attitude as a place. A place where we explore the edges of the known world, and think differently.The video camera was distracted by the street clutter and had a hard time zooming in on the snowy peaks in the distance. I realized that I too get distracted by people’s surface characteristics… At the same time, I understand how much “stuff” fills our field of vision, and that filtering is a necessary part of coping on a day to day basis.Nonetheless, the Beach Walks attitude is about taking some of the charge off of the language. Filtering is one thing; prejudice is another.Here’s where I was headed tonight:Lannan Readings & Conversations SeriesHawaiian wordsKānana: filterBe in Touch!
