Welcome to my daily learning journal. My daily goal is to watch one Ted Talk and one cataract surgery. I also plan to read one journal article and read/listen to a book chapter, podcast, or significant work.
Here is today’s list:
1. Ted Talk – Teresa Bejan: Is civility a sham? “What exactly is civility, and what does it require? In a talk packed with historical insights, political theorist Teresa Bejan explains how civility has been used as both the foundation of tolerant societies and as a way for political partisans to silence and dismiss opposing views. Bejan suggests that we should instead try for “mere civility”: the virtue of being able to disagree fundamentally with others without destroying the possibility of a common life tomorrow. (This talk contains mature language.)” (ted.com)
Excellent talk, dated 2018, which remains relevant. Especially today.
2. Cataract Surgery – Dr. Neto Rosatelli – Phaco Clip #6 – White Cataract Phacorhexis.
So cool. I’ve watched this multiple times.
