I often engage in discussions with members of my tribe about the complicated problems we face today. These conversations can be long, but I believe it’s important to regularly hold them and determine how we can best be part, no matter how small, of the solution.

When you observe such discussions on major media outlets, there is very little nuance, and sessions are timed to minutes. Debating with those you don’t know so well can also be tricky, as many worry about being judged or spiraling the conversation into heated argument.

It’s essential we learn to foster such talks with each other, to listen to which we don’t agree with, and practice being open while seeking truth. We have the technology to do great things, we must only learn to hold constructive discourse while pursuing a better future.
