Hardwired: On the Frontlines of Freedom
Despite being hardwired for freedom, nine out of ten people around the world live in places where basic human rights and fundamental freedoms aren’t a reality. Join Founder and President of Hardwired Global, Tina Ramirez, every Wednesday as she interviews human rights champions who are fighting on the frontlines for the dignity and freedom of others in countries where freedom is most fragile. Each guest shares their personal and sometimes heart wrenching story in their pursuit to ensure freedom of belief and conscience for the most vulnerable. Prepare to delve into the complexities of human rights and pluralism in countries plagued with instability and conflict. If you haven’t already, you may even begin to question the promise of freedom in your own country. Visit our YouTube channel to view the video recordings of this interview series: bit.ly/HWchannel
