Creageivity 26 - with Author and Activist Ashton Applewhite

Adrienne Thomas and Harlan Cockburn Season 4 Episode 26

Ashton Applewhite is the author of This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism and a co-founder of the Old School Hub. She has written for Harper’s, the Guardian, and the New York Times; speaks widely at venues that have included the United Nations and the TED mainstage; and is at the forefront of the emerging movement to raise awareness of ageism and make age a criterion for diversity. In 2022 the United Nations named Ashton one of the Healthy Aging 50: fifty leaders transforming the world to be a better place to grow older.

In a wide-ranging and lively discussion Ashton challenges preconceptions and makes points that everyone of any age should consider - and it's fun too!
