We’re featuring this podcast across all five Nature Labs subjects. You might not like every course you take in school, but they are all related. By listening to this podcast, hopefully you’ll better understand why.
Reflection
- How can we put forward and debate issues in a constructive way that enhances our democracy?
- Do you think we need to be more patient when it comes to advancing our ideas for change? Do we ask for too much, too quickly?
- Do we need more empathy for those that we disagree with?
- Do we need to be more inclusive of voices who have opinions informed by experiences different from our own?
- Do you listen to differing opinions? Or do you only listen to different opinions from within your own community or echo chamber?
