This is Part 2 from our previous event (HERE). All are welcome. In this series we will meet some of the bold eccentrics, scholars and artists who paved the way for Zen practice as we know it today — Sokei-an Sasaki, the “Original Dharma Bum” of 1920s and 30s America; Ruth Fuller Sasaki, a wealthy socialite who became the first American Zen priest; John Cage, whose silent musical compositions and lectures on Nothing outraged and inspired the world of art and music in the 1950s; former drag-queen-turned-Roshi Issan Dorsey, who founded the first AIDS hospice in America, and many more.
