At some point, you have to start living for yourself. Our families and significant others play a huge role in our development and give us a greater sense of belonging and community. Individualism is something that isn't always culturally encouraged, let's explore this.

Each one of us has unique skills and talents that make us who we are. But there are some who think who we are as people has more to do with things like race and gender instead of individual characteristics.

Jiro Taylor joins us for Season 1 (2021) of Birdsong. Jiro is a mystic, a poet, a storyteller, he facilitates wilderness rites of passage, he's an artist, a creative, and a mentor to those seeking deep connection with their soul path and their wild wisdom within. His work honours ancient wisdom and flows into modern life through art, nature based mentoring programs and wilderness quests, with the intention to help individuals remember who they are. Jiro is the founder of Shambhala Warriors and the flowstate collective, and I consider him to be an all round great guy, stepping into the role of wise sage and seer in the larger community, and to me, he's both a comdrade and a teacher in many ways. We cover a lot of fertile ground here, from nature immersion, the domestification of humanity, remembering our roots, ways in which we can cultivate a deeper connection to nature, similarities between various wisdom traditions, we talk about soul language, language of the earth, we riff on shamanism, we explore how the mind is not exclusively a human possession but mind extends out to the entirety of our environment, and, a lot of other ideas, and ways of living and breathing.   EPISODE NOTES: A powerful story to remind you about the incredible mystery of spirit The importance of sharing your creativity Honoring the Story inside of you The mental traps of civilization-Disconnect, Individualism, and Mental Overdrive Why our “Nature connection” needs to be more How can I connect better with Nature? Is our culture too obsessed with the “mind” and “mindset”? Remembering our “wild” past Do we have a “flat” imagination? Learning how to listen on a deeper level Have we made “spirituality” too complicated? Going deeper into the wisdom of Shamanism Being comfortable with yourself...without labels, without justification, and without excuses The pure ceremony and wisdom of fire What does prayer mean to you? Honoring the sun Remembering the medicine and wisdom of plants The wisdom and blank slate of a vision quest   TIMESTAMPS: [5:23] Opening the Container: Jiro reminds us to reconnect with the wonder and awe of spirit in a story from “Women Who Run With Wolves” [11:43] Honoring the Story [18:49] Balancing the “high” of spirit with the “low” reality of living on Earth [20:06] Making a deeper “nature connection” [25:06] Improving our connection with Nature [34:18] Too much “mind” in the mix [41:16] Remembering our wild [42:00] What do we really know? [43:56] Expanding your imagination [44:17] The skill of story listening [45:44] Communicating with society and ourselves [53:51] The “Pathless Path” [1:03:20} shifting from “knowing” to “experience” [1:06:28] Shamanism [1:11:00] Daily Rituals [1:17:00] Prayer [1:18:04] Honoring the life-giving powers of the sun [1:21:05] Honoring the wisdom and medicine of plants [1:23:42] Vision Quests [1:30:08] Closing the Container: Jiro closes the container by reminding us to give respect and thanks for those who came before us (ancestors) and those who carry us now (plants, Sun, nature, and more)

In episode 71 of The Gradient Podcast, Daniel Bashir speaks to Ted Underwood.Ted is a professor in the School of Information Sciences with an appointment in the Department of English at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign. Trained in English literary history, he turned his research focus to applying machine learning to large digital collections. His work explores literary patterns that become visible across long timelines when we consider many works at once—often, his work involves correcting and enriching digital collections to make them more amenable to interesting literary research.Have suggestions for future podcast guests (or other feedback)?

In this episode, Angela Saini, award-winning science journalist and author of “The Patriarchs: How Men Came to Rule,” traces the material and social roots of patriarchy with host Adam Gamwell. The duo explores how anthropology can help us better understand the patriarchy and patriarchical power by contextualizing and breaking down big ideas. Anthropology enables us to examine broad, complex topics through specific cultural and historical lenses. It also helps us dissect grand narrative ideas to reveal their historical trajectories. But perhaps most importantly, anthropology reminds us that we need to think about big ideas contextually, especially emotionally and politically charged ideas like the patriarchy. They dive into the definition of patriarchy and its ties to social structures, social privileges, and oppression. The conversation also touches on how different cultures interpret and shape the deployment and maintenance of gender and power to reflect their unique social norms. Saini emphasizes the importance of understanding the social variation and how male domination adapts to different changes. Drawing on many forms of evidence, she discusses the multiplicities of patriarchies, how patriarchy today functions and shapes different aspects of our lives, and how we can think big about what form of society we'd like to continue, reinvent, or totally change for ourselves and our children. Saini's work aims to bring awareness to the many different kinds of patriarchies that exist and how they are being recreated and reasserted today.Episode Highlights:[05:57] Why we shouldn't think of the patriarchy as a monolith[09:31] Why pre-history wasn't necessarily patriarchal[13:44] Why thinkers started to question where patriarchy came from[17:16] Why James Mellaart believed Çatalhöyük was a matriarchal society[23:55] How the Haudenosaunee inspired the beliefs of women's rights activists[26:57] How early civilizations' concerns about population led to binary gender norms[30:24] Possibilities that slavery and patrilocality informed each other[36:32] Why freedom and women's liberation are nuanced[43:05] The Kitchen Debate and the clash of capitalism and communism[50:40] How Kerala, India now positions itself as a beacon of women's empowerment[55:54] How we can build the society we hope to see in the futureLinks and Resources:The Patriarchs: The Origins of InequalitySuperior: The Return of Race ScienceInferior: How Science Got Women WrongConnect with Angela Saini via LinkedInCheck out Angela Saini's websiteConnect with Adam Gamwell via email, LinkedIn, or TwitterSubscribe to the This Anthro Life newsletter

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, who do the Democrat party represent and stand for in America? They put the party first and the country and citizens second, because the party is how they get and retain power. Regulations and attacks on energy independence is succeeding in destroying our country, while the DOJ and FBI impact the country in other ways. We almost have one-party rule today in the United States with some Republican quislings aiding the Democrat Marxists. Individualism is now replaced with groupism being taught in Critical Race Theory, which refuses to view people as individual human beings but rather as groups of people and condemn them for things they have not done in the name of equity. That is the totalitarian Federal government and the Democrat party today, who do not believe in individualism but instead, view people in classes like Karl Marx. Thankfully we have someone like Governor Ron DeSantis in a powerful position to take on the woke Democrat agenda and protect schools and children from being indoctrinated. Disney is suing DeSantis while other conservatives like Nikki Haley are selling out to the woke mob. Also, Mark speaks with KY Attorney General Daniel Cameron about running for governor of Kentucky and hits back against a racist cartoonist in a local newspaper. Learn more about your ad choices.

In the 90th episode of The Possibility Podcast with Mel Schwartz, the topic is the danger of toxic individualism to our relationships, our culture, and even the planet. The post #090 Toxic Individualism first appeared on Mel Schwartz, LCSW.

Unlike traditional cultures, we tell people in America to find certain dreams, feelings, or intuitions they have (on the inside) and assert them, express them, follow them, and MAKE them HAPPEN! Don’t let anyone (else) tell you what to do (or how to live your life)! Especially your parents. But this way of identity formation nearly always leads to comparison, anxiety, and condemnation. In this message, Max Vanderpool identifies the PRIMARY way we go about identity formation in American and why it (simply) doesn't work.

Above all else, the West's fight for liberty was historically a fight for the free mind against religious and political tyranny. If knowledge and happiness are the goal, the individual must be free to think and speak without threat of violence, imprisonment or death. This idea is at the root of the West's unprecedented prosperity. And without this right, ARI could not advocate the new ideas and the new philosophy that can revive the West's greatness. But today the right to free speech is precarious. This right is under vehement attack by our enemies and is being increasingly dismissed by the West itself. In this talk given to the students at Cervo University on February 21, 2023, Yaron Brook explores the reasons why the right to free speech is being attacked and why it is imperative that we properly defend freedom of speech.00:00 Individual rights02:08 Life before we had concept of individual rights05:55 Extreme power06:58 We don't appreciate how rich we are today09:40 What happened 250 years ago?13:10 Leonardo da Vinci15:00 Enlightenment, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/enlightenment,_age_of.html15:44 Reason, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/reason.html21:10 Individualism, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/individualism.html21:57 Science, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/science.html27:07 Freedom, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/freedom.html29:17 Free Speech, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/free_speech.html33:48 Twitter36:36 Danish cartoons39:30 Charlie Hebdo42:04 Speech on "public" street43:30 Inciting for violence45:25 Public schools & healthcare54:10 Culture of free speech54:50 Government is your servant not owner1:01:10 Bullying in social mediaJoin this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/@YaronBrook/joinLike what you hear?

Satanism is a religion that uses Satan as a symbol of individualism, rebellion, and enlightenment. The two most well-known groups are the Church of Satan and The Satanic Temple. The Church of Satan emphasizes self-empowerment and indulgence while The Satanic Temple focuses on activism and human rights. Both reject illegal activities and prioritize ethical behavior contrary to popular belief. Satanism is often misunderstood, but it's a complex and multifaceted religion centered around individual freedom, rationality, and critical thinking.

Success can be found in all sorts of different ways, and its meaning is different for everyone. What does "being successful" TRULY mean? To truly succeed in your life - whether personal or financial - requires you to take a hard look at yourself. 1. Family 2. Other people 3. Economic Out of these three things, only #3 can topple the others. You can have great success in your career and your investments, but if your family other people suffer because of it, does it really mean success? What drives people to achieve success?

Wisdom from A Bulldog Welcome to today's #WednesdayWisdom from Way Of The Renaissance Man Starring Jim Woods Today's insight was inspired by Nobel laureate, twice British prime minister and knighted author and statesman, Winston Churchill. “Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.” — Sir Winston Churchill I get quite a few quotes sent to me during the year, but the best one sent to me in recent years has to be from reader Kevin S., who suggested we use this beautiful and eminently true assessment of socialism by the great Winston Churchill. The English statesman saw socialism's evils first hand, and thanks to his resolve and his ability to rally his countrymen, he helped thwart socialism's tyranny before it could take over Europe. For that, free people around the globe owe a debt to the “British Bulldog.” Jim Woods March 22, 2023 For more great resources and inspiration visit WayOfTheRenaissanceMan.com   WayOfTheRenaissanceMan.com/store for Way of the Renaissance Man Fans is open.

主播：梅莉 | 翩翩歌曲 ： Bana Ellerini Ver之前我们讲“霍夫斯泰德” 6个文化维度那期，收到了很多粉丝的positive feedback（积极反馈），那今天的节目，咱们来介绍另一种跨文化管理理论——Trompenaars 7 Cultural Dimensions（琼潘纳斯7个文化维度）。It was created by Fons Trompenaars. 这个文化理论是由冯斯·琼潘纳斯创立，他是鼎鼎大名的跨文化管理的开创者，宾夕法尼亚大学沃顿商学院的高材生。他创立的琼潘纳斯7个文化维度，更多是被运用于国际企业中，比如摩托罗拉、壳牌、庞巴迪、喜力等世界一流企业。在进行文化交流的时候，most of the time things will go well（大多数时候，事情都会很顺利），但是，when things don't, and misunderstandings arise（当遇到分歧，出现误解的时候），the Trompenaars Cultural Dimensions Model can help（琼潘纳斯文化维度维度理论就派上用场了）。比如，翩翩有一个好朋友Alice,是非常优秀的外贸精英，她的客户评价她的沟通方式是：比较direct（直接）。那我们想看这句评价是褒奖还是中性，就要看这位客户所属国家的文化维度。It's important to consider the cultural background of the other party.考虑到对方的文化背景是很重要的。文化维度了解越多，越会在国际交流中游刃有余！1. 第一个文化维度：Universalism vs. Particularism 普遍主义 vs. 特殊主义universal 普遍的，universalism就是普遍主义；particular是特殊的，particularism就是特殊主义。这个维度主要看的是：某种文化之下，what matters more（是什么更重要），是rules（规则），还是 relationships（关系）。其实就是不同文化对待规则和标准的态度。Cultures based on universalism（普遍主义文化的国家），人们treat all cases the same，哪怕是涉及到自己的亲戚、朋友，无论什么背景、什么身份，都一样的待遇。The focus is more on the rules than the relationship. 普遍主义文化的国家很强调法律和法规。以普遍主义文化为主导的国家有：• Germany 德国• Japan日本• Switzerland 瑞士• Canada加拿大• the U.S. 美国• the U.K. 英国• Australia 澳大利亚Cultures based on particularism（特殊主义文化）会觉得，relationships more important than rules（人际关系、情感关系比规则重要）。为了亲朋好友，you can bend the rules（可以改变规则）。人情味比较重。Each case has to be examined in light of its special merits. 每种情况都必须根据其特殊情况加以审视。我们国家，特别重视维护长期的人际关系，是典型的特殊主义文化。以特殊主义文化为主导的国家还有：• Latin America南美• India 印度• Korea 韩国• Russia 俄罗斯• France 法国• Mexico 墨西哥• the Philippines 菲律宾2. 第二个文化维度：Individualism vs. Communitarianism个人主义 vs. 集体主义这个在霍夫斯泰德文化维度理论中也有。这个文化维度，代表了不同文化在个人与集体之间的取舍，就是说，是更看重 individual achievements（个人成就），还是want to be part of a group（想要成为一个团队的一员）。Individualistic cultures believe that your outcomes in life are the result of your choices. 个人主义文化相信：人生的产出是你个人一个又一个的选择的结果。个体主义文化中，decision-makers make decisions on their own for themselves（每个人做决定时，都是独立自主的），他们特别注重个人自由和独立性，重视个人成就（fulfillment）和自我表现。美国是典型代表国家，他们特别崇尚蝙蝠侠、蜘蛛侠、超人等超级英雄。西方很多国家都是个体主义文化，比如：• Canada 加拿大• the U.K. 英国• Australia 澳大利亚• New Zealand 新西兰• Netherlands 荷兰• Germany 德国• Sweden 瑞典• Norway 挪威• Denmark 丹麦• Switzerland 瑞士Cultures based on communitarianism believe your quality of life is better when we help each other. 集体主义文化中，更强调和谐、互助等价值，更注重集体和家庭的利益，重视亲情和团队精神。There is a strong sense of loyalty within the group. 特别重视忠诚。我们特别重视的loyalty ，但是在个人主义的国家类似于美国，就觉得这不是一个重要的标准，因为他们更强调的是个人的价值。但集体主义文化有一个不好的点，就是decision-making is slower（决策制定比较缓慢）。除了中国之外，集体主义文化的国家还有：Japan（日本），much of Africa（非洲大部分地区），and Latin American countries（拉丁美洲国家）。俄罗斯文化也是communitarianism。在俄罗斯文化中，家庭、社区和集体的价值是被强调的，工作中，俄罗斯人也是通常倾向于依赖团队合作，而非个人成就。而在家庭和社交生活中，俄罗斯人也通常很注重维护社交关系和互惠互利的交往，而不是追求个人利益。It should be noted that individualism and collectivism are not binary opposites.不同的文化维度之间并不是二元对立的。比如俄罗斯，虽然属于集体主义文化，但俄罗斯文化也有一些个体主义的特点，如强调个人的创造力和创新能力，重视个人的成就和荣誉。总之，阴中有阳，阳中有阴。每个国家都是如此。3. 第三个文化维度：Neutral vs. Affective中性 vs. 情感neutral 是指中性的、中立的， affective 情感的。这个文化维度衡量标准是：鼓不鼓励表达情感。 In a neutral culture（中立文化中），people tend not to share their emotions（人们往往不去分享他们的情绪）. Emotions are of course felt by the individual, but they are controlled.（人们会控制自己的情感表达。）这种文化下的人，通常表现得比较中立和冷静。因为在这些国家，个人空间和个人隐私被高度重视，人们不愿意过于引人注目或干扰他人。日本是中立文化的典型代表，这些国家还有：• Germany 德国• Netherlands 荷兰• Sweden瑞典• America 美国• the U.K. 英国• China 中国• Russia 俄罗斯这些都是一些非常注重自己隐私以及个人空间的国家，不会在公共场合表现出过于情感化的行为。但是可能很多人会很意外，美国人不是很奔放吗，怎么居然是中性文化的国家呢？美国个人主义文化的倾向，可能容易让人觉得美国人比较奔放和自由，但在情感表达方面，他们依然是倾向于中性文化的。这可能来源于美国的历史和文化传统。In an affective culture（情感文化中）, people tend to share their emotions, even in the workplace（哪怕是在办公场所，人们会倾向于分享他们的情绪）. 而且，it is considered normal（这都是很正常的）。情感文化的代表国家有：• Italy 意大利• Spain 西班牙• France 法国• Greece 希腊• Latin America 拉丁美洲广泛应用于国际企业经营管理中的“琼潘纳斯7个文化维度”，我们本期节目先讲前三个。希望能帮助大家站到更加宽广的维度，对于不同国家的人、他们的文化能有更加深刻的理解。后面的四个文化维度，咱们下期聊！

In this episode of New Ideal Live, Onkar Ghate and Elan Journo discuss two landmark cases before the Supreme Court of the United States on the legality of using race in college admissions. They explain how collectivist thinking and state involvement in higher education have created policies that are fundamentally at odds with America's history of individualism. Among the topics covered: How the court cases reveal a pernicious reliance on race in college admissions; Ayn Rand's opposition to quotas and affirmative action; How previous rulings left the value of “diversity” unchallenged; Why the role of diversity in education doesn't justify race-based admissions; The baseless claim of diversity as a “compelling state interest”; Justice Sotomayor's shocking claim that there is de jure racial segregation; The crucial difference between private and government-mandated racial standards; The arbitrariness of legal racial categories; Why rhetoric about racial “representation” still amounts to racial quotas; Why current admissions policies are racist, not a remedy to racism. Mentioned in this podcast and relevant to the discussion are Ayn Rand's essay “Moral Inflation” in The Ayn Rand Letter (March–April 1974), her essay “Racism,”  her Q&A on affirmative action at the 1978 Ford Hall Forum, reprinted in Ayn Rand Answers (p. 105), and her essay “Representation without Authorization,” reprinted in The Voice of Reason.

In episode 63 of The Gradient Podcast, Daniel Bashir speaks to Joe Edelman.Joe developed the meaning-based organizational metrics at Couchsurfing.com, then co-founded the Center for Humane Technology with Tristan Harris, and coined the term “Time Well Spent” for a family of metrics adopted by teams at Facebook, Google, and Apple. Since then, he's worked on the philosophical underpinnings for new business metrics, design methods, and political movements. The central idea is to make people's sources of meaning explicit, so that how meaningful or meaningless things are can be rigorously accounted for. His previous career was in HCI and programming language design.Have suggestions for future podcast guests (or other feedback)?

Protest movements have broken out against the oppressive regimes in Iran and China. Young Iranians posted their reasons for rebelling under the hashtag Baraye, meaning “because” and the singer-songwriter Shervin Hajipour compiled many of these reasons into a song of the same title that has become an anthem of the Iranian movement and an inspiration to those fighting for freedom around the world. One line in particular stands out. Young people are rebelling because of their “yeaning for an ordinary life”—for the opportunity to lead lives of the sort many around the world take for granted. By historical standards such “ordinary lives” are extraordinary, and indeed the way of living that freedom fighters long for has not been fully realized, even in the freest and most prosperous societies. It is a way of life that is demanded by human nature, such that the best among us and the best within us yearn for it, often without being able to define it or chart a course towards it. In this talk, Dr. Brook articulates the object of this yearning, discusses how it animates the movements in Iran and China, and draws implications for the fight for freedom in these countries and around the world.Recorded on January 26, 2023 at at Crum Auditorium, University of Texas - Austin, Austin, TX.10:00 Intro10:20 Iranian protest song Baraye12:50 Death of Mahsa Amini starting protests in Iran19:18 Protests in China28:24 Exodus from Cuba, Russia and Venezuela30:04 Price paid by the protesters36:24 Yearning for an Ordinary Life40:34 Why do we have freedom? 44:55 What happened 250 years ago?47:30 Reason, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/reason.html49:27 Individualism, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/individualism.html 49:55 What is Freedom?, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/freedom.html52:32 Enlightenment55:40 Noble cause for freedomLive Questions:59:41 Israeli–Palestinian conflict1:02:29 Western companies doing business in China1:10:48 Western press coverage of those uprisings1:16:37 Fall of the Berlin Wall1:21:44 Silence towards Iran1:22:42 Civil Rights Movement1:28:56 Moral culpability of US1:30:34 Covid lockdowns1:33:21 Self-esteem1:37:10 Is freedom necessary progression of any society?1:41:55 Property rights1:45:21 Way to improve western system1:50:10 Minority neighborhoods1:52:10 How to influence political decisions?1:56:00 OutroShow is Sponsored by Ayn Rand University https://university.aynrand.org/ as well as by https://www.expressvpn.com/yaron & https://www.fountainheadcasts.comJoin this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/@YaronBrook/joinLike what you hear?

Rugged individualism occupies the heart of American mythology.We pull ourselves up by our bootstraps. We ignore structural inequality and rely on our “can do” attitudes. We take on the personal shame of job loss or bankruptcy or health struggles. And we unquestionably accept that to make it in America, all we need to do is work hard.Are we happier and is our society stronger for all our self-reliance? Or does individualism exacerbate the political, social, and interpersonal issues that cause us all so much pain? And in what ways do we collude with this toxic myth as we lead and support others around us? In today's leadership roundtable conversation, my guests discuss how addressing the cultural burden of individualism is a powerful place to start when looking to also address the cultural burdens of racism, sexism, and consumerism.Deran Young is a licensed therapist, CDWF, CDTL, Co-Author of the New York Times Best Seller, You Are Your Best Thing, retired military officer, and the founder of Black Therapists Rock.Black Therapists Rock is a nonprofit organization that mobilizes over 30,000 mental health professionals committed to reducing the psychological impact of systemic oppression and intergenerational trauma. Deran is a leading influencer and public figure committed to spreading mental health awareness and improving health equity.Dr. Richard Schwartz began his career as a systemic family therapist and an academic.

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Mk 7:31-37 - Jesus left the district of Tyre and went by way of Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, into the district of the Decapolis. And people brought to Him a deaf man who had a speech impediment and begged Him to lay His Hand on him. He took him off by himself away from the crowd. He put His Finger into the man's ears and, spitting, touched his tongue; then He looked up to heaven and groaned, and said to him, "Ephphatha!" (that is, "Be opened!") And immediately the man's ears were opened, his speech impediment was removed, and he spoke plainly. He ordered them not to tell anyone. But the more He ordered them not to, the more they proclaimed it. They were exceedingly astonished and they said, "He has done all things well. He makes the deaf hear and the mute speak." Memorial of Saint Scholastica, Virgin Saint Scholastica, pray for us!

For some time now, it seems that both liberals and conservatives are split between their elites and individuals. Maybe the true divisions between groups are changing.

Protest movements have broken out against the oppressive regimes in Iran and China. Young Iranians posted their reasons for rebelling under the hashtag Baraye, meaning “because” and the singer-songwriter Shervin Hajipour compiled many of these reasons into a song of the same title that has become an anthem of the Iranian movement and an inspiration to those fighting for freedom around the world. One line in particular stands out. Young people are rebelling because of their “yeaning for an ordinary life”—for the opportunity to lead lives of the sort many around the world take for granted. By historical standards such “ordinary lives” are extraordinary, and indeed the way of living that freedom fighters long for has not been fully realized, even in the freest and most prosperous societies. It is a way of life that is demanded by human nature, such that the best among us and the best within us yearn for it, often without being able to define it or chart a course towards it. In this talk hosted by the Salem Center at Univesrity of Texas, Austin, Dr. Brook articulates the object of this yearning, discusses how it animates the movements in Iran and China, and draws implications for the fight for freedom in these countries and around the world.00:00 Intro00:20 Iranian protest song Baraye02:50 Death of Mahsa Amini starting protests in Iran09:18 Protests in China18:24 Exodus from Cuba, Russia and Venezuela20:04 Price paid by the protesters26:24 Yearning for an Ordinary Life30:34 Why do we have freedom? 34:55 What happened 250 years ago?37:30 Reason, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/reason.html39:27 Individualism, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/individualism.html 39:55 What is Freedom?, see http://aynrandlexicon.com/lexicon/freedom.html42:32 Enlightenment45:40 Noble cause for freedomLive Questions:49:41 Israeli–Palestinian conflict52:29 Western companies doing business in China1:00:48 Western press coverage of those uprisings1:06:37 Fall of the Berlin Wall1:11:44 Silence towards Iran1:12:42 Civil Rights Movement1:18:56 Moral culpability of US1:20:34 Covid lockdowns1:23:21 Self-esteem1:27:10 Is freedom necessary progression of any society?1:31:55 Property rights1:35:21 Way to improve western system1:40:10 Minority neighborhoods1:42:10 How to influence political decisions?1:46:00 OutroShow is Sponsored by Ayn Rand University https://university.aynrand.org/ as well as by https://www.expressvpn.com/yaron & https://www.fountainheadcasts.comJoin this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/@YaronBrook/joinLike what you hear?

They are yanking communities apart and separating them. Filling them with fear and lies and hate. So, truth is needed in that. Discernment is needed and that. Compassion is needed in that. Care is needed in that. Those who have the capacity can, and should step in with those tools. Shaming and blaming, there is a place for it... but we often need a different approach. Not everyone can do it, but those of us who can need to step in to support a different culture and conversation." - Shakil ChoudrySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Can we change the world?Looking for a link we mentioned? It's here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimesCamus and Kafka have both been central to 20th century writing and thought. Both wrote about the relationship of the individual to society. But they had very different visions. Camus saw the individual as having the power to change and influence society. While Kafka honed in on the limitations of the individual to change anything and the power of the state and social organisation.Who got it right? Should we follow Camus and see freedom and the ability to change the world as essential to the human condition? Or is this an illusion, and instead recognise that we are limited by culture, upbringing, and organisation, so that there is no room left for the lone individual to alter and change the character of society or the course of their lives?There are thousands of big ideas to discover at IAI.tv – videos, articles, and courses waiting for you to explore.

Participating in modern society is interdependent by nature.  But in the United States, individualism and exceptionalism are part of the dominant narrative of how we relate to success, failure, and each other.  Erica discusses how the winter holidays can be a useful illustration of how interdependence and individualism show up for us in school, work, and in our relationships and communities. In this discussion: Defining individualism and interdependence How the holidays provide a foil for observing these paradigms in our lives Three questions to help you define where and how individualism and interdependence are showing up for you   Ready to dive deeper?
