Robert M Weir works and plays with words. After working in radio, television, and the school yearbook business, the discovery of a brain tumor caused him to reassess his life. It reminded him of his mortality and motivated him to hone his creative writing skills and reorient his career.

Since the 1990s, “Have Laptop, Will Travel” has been the theme of his life. He has enjoyed success as the author of many magazine articles, travel blogs, and books including Peace, Justice, Care of Earth, the biography of John McConnell, founder of the original Earth Day, and Brain Tumor, a medical memoir about his experiences with benign meningioma.

Bob also is a writers’ coach, an editor, and a public speaker who gives presentations about people, peace-making, social justice issues, environmentalism, and his many travel adventures.

On Sunday, August 17, join Bob Weir on a “A Deep Dive into Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion … and Sameness.”  Bob will not talk about Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in a political sense; there’s more than enough of that in the news already.

Rather Bob’s stories and PowerPoint slides will illustrate the omnipresence of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Nature, cultural arts, mathematics, and spirituality. You will come away with the message that “To deny DEI is to defy the Divine” and “We are better together.”
