Continuing the discussion from Saturday Forum Open Governance Circle Meets April 3 - 11am PST / 2pm EST / 1800 GMT - New Time!:
Saw a Tweet from Member @ntnsndr today linking to a brilliant essay by WEB Dubois that resonates powerfully with ‘Democracy’ themes from this morning’s discussion in the Governance Circle session.
Particular points:
- The history of anti-democratic tendencies
- The necessity of education
- The necessity of serving those with the least agency
- The threat of tyrannical majorities
- Social conditions in America since the Civil War
