RE: GREAT MEN WALK THE STREETS TOO: Exploring the power of untold stories in shaping society
@prozien You are absolutley right and I like how you spoke to the issue of sustainable change. Change will not be wholly sustainable if it is pursued in parts. What that does is to seemingly better whatever indices are used to evaluate the society as a whole but then deepen inequality. I think this describes the cycle that a lot of societies are currently navigating. Also, I think that in the bid to alleviate some of the issues of the under-privileges, there's the other extreme to be wary of; demonizing the privileged as though they owe everyone else something that must be retrieved from them.
I think that the essence of what we're seeking to achieve is balance of some sort. Even though that may be argued as subjective too, I think that our internal compasses - if we'd be honest - bear witness of where the society really leans towards.
I'll check out your post as well. Cheers!
