Synopsis

Tony Stoller’s Swarthmore Lecture is, in no uncertain terms, a wake-up call that alerts us to a falling-away from our previous tradition of concern – and support for those engaged – in commerce and public affairs.

From his own experience he argues that, just as for Jacob confronting the Angel, this engagement is not without personal risk, and involved challenges for Quaker corporate work. His first-hand knowledge of the workings of commercial organizations, the media and public regulatory bodies encourages him to assert that engagement in these fields is worthwhile witness for the individual and a proper obligation for our Society.
