🎙️ Welcome to another episode of the Aging Tapestry Classroom!
In this episode, we’re pulling on one of the more controversial threads in the sociology of aging.... The Disengagement Theory. Why was it once widely accepted that older adults should step back from social roles? What social context shaped this belief? And most importantly…is it still relevant today?
We'll explore:
✨ The historical and social context behind the theory
🧵 The metaphor of the aging tapestry ; gently pulling away threads
👀 Whether society still sees aging as a time to "make space"
🌎 What modern research says about staying engaged as we grow older
🗣️ A Kwéyòl phrase that captures this mindset: “Ou ja vyé… ba jenn moun plas yo!"
Join me as we question the patterns we've inherited and ask: is stepping back the only way to age?
💬 Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe to keep weaving these conversations together.
