Every City Can Be A City Of Kindness

Born This Way Foundation Team / July 1, 2016

This past Sunday, our co-founder Lady Gaga asked 300 mayors to join us in our mission to create a kinder, braver world. Lady Gaga joined the Dalai Lama and the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation, to discuss the power of kindness and compassion.

To start the conversation, Lady Gaga and His Holiness The Dalai Lama met to have  a one-on-one conversation on the topics of kindness and compassion. They answered your questions about how we can help young people overcome depression, eating disorders, and other mental health crises. They discussed everything from meditation to connecting with the rest of humanity.

Lady Gaga and the Dalai Lama then joined Phillip Anschutz from RAK on the main stage. Together, they talked about how we can overcome tragedy and the value in changing our perspective. If you missed their discussion you can watch their inspiring conversation here. And, you can see the highlights from the online conversation below.

Perhaps most importantly though, they called on all of us to join them in making every city a City of Kindness. Can you imagine what the world would be like if every city was a City of Kindness? We need your help to make this a reality! Tell your mayor you’re ready to help make your city a City of Kindness!
