Courageous Compassion at the Crossroads of Conflict is a talk President Ann Filemyr gave to Unity Santa Fe on the morning of Sunday, September 13. It is an invitation to consider what we can bring to the conflicts within and around us at this time of social unrest and global pandemic. She shares an old story of the Great Peacemaker and Jigonsaseh from the oral tradition of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Confederacy as an example of bringing our courage and compassion to a conflict in order to transform it. The talk concludes with a guided meditation.
