Brief

Steven Pinker, author, professor, and enlightened thinker, is a staunch idealist who believes the world is trending upwards. It may be difficult to accept these statements as fact when we read the news but Pinker has the numbers to back up his claims and the attitude to hold fast even under pressure. Instead of thinking that the globalized world order is under threat, a hard look at the realities of the world today and the progress we have made can remind us that we can also create more positive change in the fields of literacy, healthcare, and justice. Join us in this session as Steven Pinker reminds us why we must be appreciative of how far we have come and why our future is promising.
