We are anchored, as an organization, around experiential learning and action, not only for our interns but also in/for the communities we are part of. But this bias itself is informed by the opportunities many of us have had, through education, living in cultures other than those we were born into, access to libraries, or work experience early in life, to read our way to better understanding. We have plenty of diverse posts on this topic. In a couple of minutes, the video above sheds light on why this post, and a few follow-ups by one of our first contributors, set the bar for what we see on a good day: with the aid of good literary perspective, we can describe our experiences in a way that benefits others.
An interesting thought, yes reading can open our perspective on life, the way we see other people and situations. Enjoyed this video clip very much, thank you.
You’re welcome! We agree and were happy to share it. Thanks for stopping by!
