Cultivating Community in a Virtual Space: PYP on TedX

Cultivating Community in a Virtual Space | Lisa Nelson-Haynes | TEDxPhiladelphiaSalon

Can we create a community in a virtual space? Lisa Nelson-Haynes, Executive Director of Philadelphia Young Playwrights, explores the complexities of building communities during the stay-at-home orders and six feet of distance of the COVID-19 pandemic, while watching years of racial injustice hit a tipping point. Lisa walks us through her experiences in community building and identifies the steps needed to be a part of a community during this new normal. Believe it or not, it all starts with a YES.

​This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.​
