Описание: Depressed? Frustrated? Feeling sad and helpless about the state of the world? You may be suffering from what late professor George Gerbner called, "Mean World Syndrome" a feeling that the world is going to hell in a handbag. But Harvard professor Steven Pinker "The Better Angels of Our Nature, Why Violence Has Declined) and former Lebanon hostage & Catholic Priest Father Lawrence Martin Jenco may have an effective treatment. They provide scientific, statistical, and anecdotal excuses to be exceedingly optimistic about the world and the direction it's heading in! Keep calm and do science! History data shows that violence is at an all-time low. Women's, LGBT rights and acceptance are soaring. Transgender people enjoy freedoms unimaginable when I was born at the dawn of the Civil Rights Movement. I confess to being an optimistic, progressive voice and, I hope an inspirational one. This video gives some examples of how science and interrogation of available data can not only provide us an optimistic outlook on the future but help us be grateful for the progress progressive politics and movements have wrought!
