citizens of the future

If we are to take on the task of renewing the world, we need to care so deeply about the world and about the future that we are willing to unlearn many of the mental models and ideologies that have been directly or indirectly taught to us. To do this requires Radical Curiosity.

Citizenship is human nature: an intrinsic inclination, always bubbling, often suppressed, never wholly conquered, and now at a moment of huge opportunity.

The most fundamental task is to help each other to reorient our life and work through a sensibility that is prefigurative of the better aspects of our emerging future.

when we tap into the diverse spectrum of human emotion, we have an opportunity to inspire people to view themselves as part of a larger story—and to make moral decisions about who they are in relation to other human beings.

In the worst of these conditions, knowledge is wielded as a tool of power through which education systems can actively oppress entire populations, preventing the awareness of their own agency in their lives.
