What is human dignity? Is it a real thing, or merely an idea? If it's real, then where does it come from? And why do only human beings have dignity? What about other intelligent beings? What about the octopus?These are only some of the many questions that Damir Marusic and Santiago Ramos talk about in a slow-burn, philosophical episode of Wisdom of Crowds. Because Santiago is executive editor of Wisdom of Crowds, Damir wants to learn more about his bedrock convictions. He cross-examines Santiago about his religion, politics, and formative experiences.At first, Damir finds in Santiago a kindred spirit: both are skeptical about power and about big political theories. But Santiago does have one fundamental conviction that he is not skeptical about: universal human dignity. Damir presses Santiago on this topic. What is human dignity? How do you know it exists? And do only human beings have dignity? What about other intelligent animals? What about … octopi?The ending is one of the richest parts of the conversation, so we made this episode is free for all subscribers. * Daniel Patrick Moynihan documentary (PBS).* Song about the guerrilla priest: Victor Jara, “Camilo Torres” (YouTube).* “Of New Things,” Pope Leo XIII (Vatican.va).* “On the Progress of Peoples,” Paul VI (Vatican.va).* Jacques Maritain and the UN Declaration of Human Rights (UNESCO).* The Cold War in Latin America (RetroReport).* Michael Novak obituary (New York Times). * Iraq War timeline (Council on Foreign Relations).* Thomas Aquinas on the human soul (Summa Theologiae, New Advent).* Valladolid debate on the rights of indigenous people (In Our Time, BBC).* Octopus intelligence (Natural History Museum).Wisdom of Crowds is a platform challenging premises and understanding first principles on politics and culture.

The conversation also touches on the balance between success and significance. The conversation ends with Michael highlighting the role of philanthropy in creating a meaningful legacy. Takeaways Transparency and communication are crucial in passing on family values and wealth through generations. The challenges faced by different generations must be addressed to ensure successful wealth transfer. Two exercises can help families improve communication and identify shared values: a communication exercise that helps family members understand their communication styles and a values exercise that encourages families to discuss and prioritize their core values. Legacy planning involves more than just financial considerations; it requires emotional intelligence and the ability to navigate family dynamics. Communication and intentional conversations are crucial for families to define their values and create a meaningful legacy. Success should be defined on a personal level, beyond financial achievements, and significance is the outcome of living according to those values. Philanthropy plays a significant role in creating a lasting legacy and giving back to the community. Organizations like Bluecoats provide support to families of first responders who have lost their lives in the line of duty.

Send us a Text Message.Could the decline in the national percentage of the Black population be signaling a crisis many are hesitant to acknowledge? This urgent discussion is sparked by the alarming high abortion rates in the Black community, a phenomenon some are bold enough to label a genocide. Join us as we shine a light on the outcry from Black American leaders and pastors who recently protested a new Planned Parenthood clinic in Charlotte, North Carolina. The data presented is sobering—scholar Michael Novak points to the staggering 16 million Black babies aborted since 2002. It's a wake-up call demanding political engagement and community action, and we don't shy away from the tough questions or the uncomfortable truths that need to be faced head-on.The battle over natural rights is not a relic of history—it is a living debate, directly tied to the abortion conversation. We explore this philosophical struggle with insights from pro-life advocates like William Saunders and Harley Atkins, who compare the dehumanization of slavery to the denial of rights to the unborn. This episode confronts the government's inconsistent protection of life, liberty, and property, and the profound impact this has had on Black communities. As we dissect the parallels between the Dred Scott case and the devaluation of unborn lives, we invite you to join us in a powerful call for reflection on the society we want to build. It's not just a matter of policy; it's a question of our collective humanity.Support the Show.
