With journalist Bilal Qureshi I created the six-part radio documentary series "Inspired," for the non-profit Seeds of Peace.

Over the course of six months Bilal and I met several changemakers (in Lahore, Chicago, Ramallah, Tel Aviv and Maine) whose commitment to improving their corners of the world grows from a single, common seed.

Below is one of the stories we produced. For the rest, which features educators, artists, politicians, and activists all challenging the status quo, head to iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher, and Google Play.
