April 29, 2019 - Bob Fabey gave a very engaging presentation about how we often make objects out of people and then treat them the wrong way.
He gave the example of our reaction when someone cuts us off in traffic; our normal reaction is "What a jerk". However we don't know that individual's story - they might be trying to get to a hospital or might be suffering from a migraine headache, etc. We clearly see this objectivication in politics. The alternative is to provide dignity to individuals. Ask ourselves: why are they acting like that? What is their story? Rotary works to instill dignity in the community. How we do what we do is as important as what we do. Thanks Bob for a thought-provoking presentation.
