The "secret sauce" for creating better places to live? It's not secret. It ain't sauce. The next time the #Knicks play, watch them put their hands together before taking the Court. This gesture is profoundly related to the survival of our communities. 🏀 @aargelich@nieuwsuit043#euro

New ICF Podcast: Voices from the Kitchen: New York’s respected restaurant owner cooks a conversation about local sourcing, immigrants and community!
Listen here: intelligentcommunity.org/voi…
ICF Co-Founder Lou Zacharilla speaks with Marc Meyer, author, "Voices from the Kitchen."
Pope Leo XIV: "Among these ideologies, I consider particularly insidious the one that suggests that every person must earn or justify his or her own worth, to the point of attributing greater value to those who are more efficient or effective. From this perspective, persons end up being reduced to a means of achieving results, a resource to be used and exploited, and are no longer recognized as a proper end in themselves who should never be instrumentalized. The value of persons, however, does not depend on what they achieve or produce. There are rights that apply to everyone simply by virtue of being human, and no human power can legitimately deny or arbitrarily limit them." #MagnificaHumanitas
