Imagine sitting down with someone you think you don't like and realizing, after just two hours, that they're actually an ally.

In a powerful conversation, we chat with our longtime friend and Human Library founder, Ronnie Abergel, about how his unique project has the remarkable ability to break down barriers and change people's perspectives. We journey through Ronnie's passion for helping others, from his days working at a hospital to starting the Stop the Violence movement, and learn how that passion eventually led him to create the Human Library.

Together, we explore the importance of respecting everyone's right to be in the library and dive into the complexities of our humanity. Ronnie shares his personal experiences with grief, relationships, and finding happiness, emphasizing the importance of staying present and appreciating the moments we have. We also discuss the power of volunteering and how it can dismantle fear and create connections in our lives.

Join us as we reflect on the impact of the Human Library and the beautiful stories of transformation that have come from it. We discover the opportunities it offers for personal growth and finding common ground with those we might have once dismissed.  Embark on this inspiring journey with us as we learn from Ronnie Abergel and the incredible impact of the Human Library movement.
