The Tipping Point - Malcolm Gladwell

What We Learned

1. Don't wait for someone to do what you want done.

Jordan was hoping that someone would create an Instagram account about the people and life of St. Louis, but then decided that anyone could create the account so he did it.

2. People respond to other people.

Jordan has found that the pictures that get the greatest response are those that show the humanity of other people.

3. True art is honest.

The best works of art don't ignore the dark side of humanity. Jordan mentioned that some of his favorite photos are the ones that make people uncomfortable.
