Hi there! This week, Jamie and Leah are going into another section of the book Humankind, by Rutger Bregman. Today, we look at the Stanford Experiment, the Robber's Cave Experiment, Stanley Milgram's Shock Machine, and how all this seems to point to the fact that humans are generally bad if you break through the thin surface veneer.

Here's the bibiographical information about the book:

Bregman, R. (2021). Humankind: A Hopeful History.

And here's some other things we referred to in the podcast this week:

  • Neff, K. D. (2011). Self-Compassion: the proven power of being kind to yourself. In Medical Entomology and Zoology. http://ci.nii.ac.jp/ncid/BB27817715
  • Smithsonian Institute's Bias Inside Us Online Exhibit
