About this listen
Education is a huge contributor to a person's political involvement. In this episode, we discuss how the quality and type of education is more impactful than quantity. We explore statistical research that shows education level does not necessarily make us more openminded, but that it helps to open doors to different perspectives. It is up to us to decide whether or not we walk through those doors towards new understanding & enlightenment.
This episode continues my mini-series where we’ll unpack different themes and perspectives to help us better understand the people around us. If you enjoy this format, let me know—I’d love to hear your feedback and see if we should continue with more episodes like this!
