The Moral Equivalent of War: Art, Empowerment, and Underserved Communities

Hello everyone and welcome back to the Intentional Expressions Podcast with Host Peter Carpou, helping you rethink, create, and empower through the social impact of artistic expression.

 

In this episode, Peter delves into William James’ essay The Moral Equivalent of War and its relevance to working with underserved populations as an artist. He reflects on how James’ call to channel the discipline and purpose of war into constructive social efforts parallels the transformative role art can play in building resilience, fostering connection, and creating meaning in marginalized communities. Peter also shares personal stories and insights about using art as a tool for empowerment and social change.
