Learning is liberating, y'all.

The driving force that bends the moral arc of human history towards justice is critical thinking, the singular ability we have as intelligent beings to unify our great powers of rationality & humanity.

Together, we can uncover the elements of what our best thinking looks like as we learn how to harness our intelligence towards empowering projects that are reasonable in logic & humanizing in spirit.

And young people aren't the only ones who need lessons over critical thinking, democracy & freedom. We're all learners here.

But each of us are teachers, too, no matter our profession or age. As an intelligent species, learning from and educating to one another is as ceaseless for us as breathing in and breathing out.

Look at that, when you think about education in democratic terms, it makes for a really empowering approach. I wonder what other liberating discoveries are waiting for you in the critical tradition...
