What does it mean to be human within a culture, and how do we shape it? Big inventions and insights change humanity forever, but it is the persistent day-to-day decisions that invest in our culture. Even everyday attitudes of generosity, kindness, and humility can contribute to evolving who we are. A lot of these small displays of graciousness have been lost; holding doors, listening to one another, even simple compliments seem to have evaporated. What does it mean to be human today, and how has it changed throughout history? We may be surprised to find how culture is radically different, even in our own country, yet alone a different continent. We discuss the mechanisms that divide us as well as what we can contribute, as artists, as laborers, and as everyday people, and how the reverberations of today: politically, spiritually, and intellectually, will shape our tomorrow.
