About this listen
In this heartfelt episode of the Peacemakers Podcast, we’re joined by James Shaheen, editor of Tricycle: The Buddhist Review, to explore the power of journalism as a form of practice. In a world saturated with outrage and divided by extremes, James offers an alternative, one with discernment, depth, and compassion.
James reflects on decades of navigating polarization—not by retreating from the world, but by engaging it with clarity and care. He shares how Tricycle has addressed issues like gender equality, racial injustice, and the challenges of political neutrality, always through the lens of practice.
This conversation is an invitation to reconsider what it means to take action, not always loudly, but with presence and wisdom.
Tune in for a moving discussion on the courage to stay open in difficult times.
