Manage episode 448325370 series 3612744
John Ondrasik rocked the world in December 2023, with his release of the epic anthem of humanity, "OK" (We Are Not OK). That rock became seismic when the official video dropped.

A scathing indictment on the state of humanity and morality in America, the heart-rending visuals added an unbearable punch in the gut to Ondrasik's already piercing musical commentary.
Neither Jewish nor Israeli, Ondrasik (Five for Fighting) saw it as a moral imperative that he speak up in the face of general and shameful silence across the music and entertainment industries regarding the pure evil that Hamas unleashed on Israel on October 7, 2023.
In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and John Ondrasik discuss the principles of morality and allyship...and the dangers of staying silent.
If you are a yogi or yogini who is confused about the bright line between good and evil, drawn so clearly on 10/7, you owe it to yourself to listen to this discussion about the slippery slope the West is sliding down and what lies in wait at the bottom.
