A thought-provoking comment from a recent Psychology Podcast episode interviewing Dr Jamil Zaki from Stanford University who has recently authored the book "Hope for Cynics. The surprising science of human goodness" In a world that can seem increasing cynical, the following quote identifies on of the key problems in my opinion - the amplification of extreme views, and possibly hints at a solution, the silent majority working to count the promotion of these extreme views. The podcast also covers other thought-provoking ideas - hopeful skepticism, social savouring, solution journalism and understanding "social shark attacks" which may collectively hint at some solutions to cynicism and distrust in today's society. #positivepsychology #politics #peace

Asian-American History For Young People | Episode 109 GRAB A COPY OF Made in Asian America: A History for Young People here - https://www.rfr.bz/lnewi7j or here - https://www.rfr.bz/lnewi7k Asian American history is not made up of one single story. It’s many. And it’s a story that too often goes untold. It begins centuries before America even exists as a nation. It is connected to the histories of Western conquest and colonialism. It’s a story of migration; of people and families crossing the Pacific Ocean in search of escape, opportunity, and new beginnings. It is also the story of race and racism. Of being labeled an immigrant invasion, unfit to become citizens, and being banned, deported, and incarcerated. Of being blamed for bringing diseases into the country. And it is a story of bravery and hope. It is the story of heroes who fought for equality in the courts, on the streets, and in the schools, and who continue to fight in solidarity with others doing the same. This book is a stirring account of the ordinary people and extraordinary acts that made Asian America and the young people who are remaking America today.
