Actor, activist, and Zen priest Peter Coyote joins the Peacemakers Podcast for a powerful episode that pulls no punches. With a voice shaped by decades of spiritual practice and political engagement, Peter traces how we arrived at this moment—from the ideals of the 1960s to the calculated strategies of political and economic power.
Peter reminds us that Buddhist practice isn’t a retreat from the world—it’s an invitation into it. Into the mess. Into the uncertainty. Into the radical possibility of listening without judgment and showing up with clarity and care.
If you’ve ever wondered how the Three Tenets of the Zen Peacemakers can show up in today’s political climate, this episode is for you.
