    The World Peace Episode - Multiracialverse Podcast Episode #22 - What is your Recipe for World Peace

    Welcome to the Multiracialverse podcast. I’m your host, Antonio Fernandez, and today, we're diving into one of the most profound questions of our time: Can we as humans attain world peace? This is episode number 22, and we’re dedicating it to exploring the hope and the challenge of peace in our world. As we approach election day tomorrow, many of us feel the weight of tension, uncertainty, and the deep divides within our societies. Around the globe, communities are facing hardships, and it sometimes feels as though conflict is all we know. But I also believe we’re a world that’s tired of fighting. There’s a longing for unity, for love, and for a future filled with hope and prosperity. For this special episode, I reached out to past guests of the podcast—artists, thinkers, leaders, and everyday people—and asked them a simple but powerful question: What is your recipe for world peace? As you listen, you’ll hear ideas as diverse as they are profound. Some have shared visions of mutual understanding, where cultures and beliefs come together in dialogue. Others have spoken of compassion, of healing our individual wounds to create a collective resilience. And some have urged us to start small, with acts of kindness and empathy in our own neighborhoods. Or food and music! In past discussions on Multiracialverse, we’ve often asked: Is world peace truly attainable? The answers are layered and complex. Some believe that achieving peace means fundamentally rethinking how we connect and collaborate with each other, across races, religions, and national borders. They’ve highlighted that peace isn’t a destination—it’s a practice, one that requires daily commitment from each of us. So, where do we begin? Many of our guests have suggested that peace starts with a willingness to truly listen. To hear one another, even when we don’t fully understand or agree. Each of us can start by fostering compassion, by stepping into someone else’s story, and by recognizing that every act of understanding ripples out in ways we may never see. And, many of them believe that peace begins within. And to close today’s episode, for the few minutes, my spiritual brother Weyhan Moon Smith of the Shinnecock nation will lead us in a prayer for peace. This prayer is a time to mourn all we’ve lost—our loved ones, our innocence, our sense of safety—and to plant a seed of hope for the world we can build together. Thank you for joining us in this sacred space. Let’s take a deep breath, open our hearts, and imagine a world where peace isn’t just an idea but a way of life. Here on Multiracialverse, we dare to dream of it."
