Overview

A blueprint for rebuilding civil society through respect, drawing from five decades of global peacebuilding experience across 46 countries. Psychiatric social worker and clergyman Emanuel C. Perlman reveals how respect for teachers, first responders, parents, and community leaders forms the foundation of lasting peace, featuring his universal anthem that unites 124 languages. In an era of unprecedented division, ""Reclaiming Respect"" offers a revolutionary approach to healing our fractured world. Drawing from five decades as a psychiatric social worker, clergyman, and founder of the global Destination Peace movement, Emanuel C. Perlman presents a practical blueprint for rebuilding society's foundations through mutual respect and understanding. From his 1983 arrest outside the Russian Embassy advocating for Soviet Jews to receiving presidential honors in Nigeria, Perlman's journey spans 46 countries and countless encounters with survivors, heroes, and ordinary people doing extraordinary things. His experiences range from Cherokee wisdom ceremonies to AI summits in Geneva, from counseling families in crisis to creating the world's first universal peace anthem, Sasha Eha Tozi Hawoo(R), which incorporates elements from 124 languages. This isn't another abstract peace theory. Perlman provides concrete strategies for restoring respect in our daily lives honoring teachers who shape tomorrow's citizens, supporting first responders who risk everything for community safety, empowering parents as the first teachers of civility, and amplifying the voices of the ""silent majority"" who hold the key to healing democracy. Featuring wisdom from distinguished contributors including Holocaust survivors, Nobel laureates, presidential advisors, and global thought leaders, ""Reclaiming Respect"" demonstrates how small acts of courage create worldwide transformation. Through powerful storytelling and practical guidance, Perlman shows how music, memory, and moral courage can bridge the deepest divides.
