Relentlessly Human Tour: Info Sheet

When everything is awful, the best we can do is love each other. 

When it’s happening: Nov. 17, 2021-Nov. 17, 2022

What it is: Podcast, YouTube Series, Blog, possibly a book with photos, and eventually a movement

History & Inspiration: This began in conversation with Matt Crouch on the Big Island of Hawaii, and out of a desire to reconnect in person with the people we’ve missed because of the pandemic and the way Life has scattered us. 

We’ve been locked down, separated, disconnected, and often scared and lonely. We lost deep important connections with friends and family--the connections at the root of our humanity. 

As I made a list of who I wanted to see and hug, I realized most of my friends are artists. It struck me that this tour and its public-facing components could be a fitting way to honor the art, artists, and creativity that helped us all through the pandemic. (And will probably continue to help us through the next however many years we will be dealing with this disease.)

This tour’s public-facing components are a podcast, video series (YouTube and IGTV), and written blog, with the ultimate goal of creating a movement of radical acceptance, love, and kindness towards our fellow humans.

 

How you can support: When possible, I am traveling in my 2008 Toyota RAV4 that has almost 200,000 miles on it already and sleeping on friends’ couches. I travel with my dog, Oakley.

As we near the time of the United States Presidential election, fact-checking our politicians is quickly becoming a full-time job. Lucky for us, author Tim Ward has a handy guide to defending ourselves from the lies and putting the truth back into politics. 

Tim Ward is co-author of the book Pro Truth: A Practical Plan for Putting Truth Back into Politics. He’s on the Board of Directors that oversees the Pro Truth Pledge, founded by his co-author Dr. Gleb Tsipursky. Together they wrote Pro Truth to help people protect themselves from the lies of politicians, and to create a pro-truth movement that they believe is essential for democracy.
 
Tim is also the co-owner of Intermedia Communications Training, Inc. Based in the Washington D.C. area, he works with global organizations helping them communicate better.
