Looking forward to the article. Just reading about public relations in Western culture and the the naturalization of the idea that we are all the same–sounds nice anyway. But we aren’t, and equality or unity not only doesn’t exist but it’s used to limit our imaginations in a quest for harmony. Instead of being “nice” maybe we should be mature and curious and accept difference as valuable?

“The Wayfinders – Why Ancient Wisdom Matters in the Modern World” by anthropologist Wade Davis is good too. Davis writes about the extinction of cultures and how that impoverishes all of us.
