Did the global response to 9/11 make us safer?

After the 911 attack took place in 2001, international security issue had become an important issue for United State and European countries. Most of countries chose to restrict their immigration policy and spend more money on military action targeting terrorist group. Most of citizens in the countries believed the decisions made by their governments could make their homes a safer place; However, conflict and security researcher Benedetta Berti disagreed with them. “The key of security is to protect civilian,” stated the woman who spent a decade researching conflicts in the Middle East in one of her TED talk. She said that the only way to ensure long-term peace was to give human rights to those who needed it. Targeting certain groups of people would only increase hatred between two sides. Safty and dignity were crucial for developing a healthy mind. Many people in the Middle East had already suffered from the trauma brought by wars. Treating them as enemy would only increase their anger towards Western country, which would create more threats to international security.

I agree with her opinion. Killing will only increase more hatred. I’ve read a new article about Chinese government putting Uyghurs in political camps. The communist party thinks Uyghurs Muslim culture is a threat to China’s unity, so they forces thousands of people going to the camps and swearing their loyalty to the Communist Party of China. According to one of the survivor from those camp, the pressure, which Chinese government have put on him, make him wants to revenge to those who had suppressed him. Leaders of countries really need to adjust thier admistartion of security.

Don't insist on English!

As the idea of the globalization rises, English has become the most dominant language during international events. English is taught around the world. Most of school starts teaching children English when they are in elementary schools, even in kindergartens. Having a common language around the world increases the efficiency of communication, but Patricia Ryan still has some concerns about the change. As an English teacher spending thirty years in the Middle East, she was fascinated by Arabic culture. However, she later found that the dominance of English is gradually erode local language and tradition. She mentioned in her TED talk that a language died every fourteen days. However, English is a requirement for better education or joining a international research projects, which only make things worse. Patricia Ryan agrees to have a global language helps communicating, but she doesn't agree to use it as a barrier. Having a bilingual education requires a lot of money and time. The fees for English tests is unaffordable to those struggling for their finance, so students from poor family is hardly getting access to western education, even they are talented in their fields. A language also represents values and beliefs in different culture. The English teacher told a story about two scientist during her speech. There were two English scientist studying the genetic differentiate of an animal’s forelimbs and back limbs, but they couldn’t get the result until a German scientist joined their lab. The German scientist pointed out that there was no genetic differentiate between forelimbs and back limbs because Germany only use one word to call animal’s leg, so he could figure out that forelimbs and back limbs carried out same function and there wasn’t genetic difference in those two area. Language determine our worldview and problem solving skill. When a language is eliminated, it is a huge loss to human.

Bring on Female Heroes

Superheroes have huge impact on pop culture. They appear in movies, television programs, and comics. Superheroes are often portrayed as people who have incredible strength and intelligence. However, most famous superheroes, such as ones in the movie “Revengers”, are represented by male actors. Dr. Christopher Bell is a professor at University of Colorado Colorado Springs. He is specialized in studying pop culture. In his TED talk, he mentioned that he has a daughter who is into Star Wars. One day, he went to a toy store and asked for Princess Leia’s custom for her daughter’s Halloween dress up. He was told that Disney has no intention to produce a custom of a female character. He did some research and found that even media companies tend to add more female characters in superhero movies, they never made merchandises that has female figure on them, which include cloth, toy, backpack, lunchbox… etc.. As a Media Studies professor, Christopher knows that media can have huge influence on social value. The ignorance of female heroes will make young girls value themself less than opposite sex. His daughter is very into sport, and she has won many medals in martial art competition. He doesn’t want her daughter to feel powerless because of her gender. However, gender discrimination doesn’t only target girls, it also targets boys. There was a twelve year boy beaten up by his classmate because he liked "My Little Pony", a cartoon that was designed for young girls. He later hanged himself in his room. Compare to girls, boys often face more social pressure when they are interested in things representing opposite sex, which is due to sexism against women. There is a myth in our society that women are weak and dumb, and being a woman is shameful. Dr. Christopher Bell is calling for change in media representation and social ideology. He stated that there’s no shame being your true-self because men and women should be equally respected, valued and represented.

Why I, as a black man, attend KKK rallies.

Daryl Davis is a blues musician and a famous anti-racism activist. At the age of ten, Davis had encountered the first racism event against him in his life. He was holding the flag of the United States in his hand during a school rally. Suddenly, a rock hit his head. There were people yelling and throwing pebbles at him. After the incident, Davis started wondering: how could those people hated him before they even knew him? He read many books about the KKK and white supremacists. He was trying to figure out why he was being attacked because of his skin color. In 1983, he performed his music in a bar. A white man complimented his music. Later it turned out that the man was a member of the KKK. Davis was fascinated by the conversation, and he realized that he could still have dialogues with people that support white supremacy. Few years later, he decided to interview one of the top leaders of the KKK. He concealed his skin color in the phone call, and the Klan leader accepted his suggestion. The interview was held in a hotel room. There were tensions, but Davis has formed a friendly relationship with the Grand Dragon. They became close friends in the next few years. Now Davis is the only black person allowed to attend the KKK gatherings.

"When two enemies are talking, they are not fighting. It's when the talking ceases that the ground becomes fertile for violence," said Davis in his TED Talk.

He has talked to countless KKK members and influenced over 200 people leaving the Klan.

The surprising science of alpha males

Most people have a misunderstanding that the power of an alpha male can only be maintained by his physical strength. However, a scholar of primate social behavior disagrees with the statement. Frans de Waal has spent decades studying the society of chimpanzee. He shared a story of Amos, an leader of a chimpanzee group, in one of his TED talks. Amos was popular in his group until he got sick. He lost his position and become weaker and weaker. Surprisingly, the other member in the group didn't abandon him. They sent him food and made shelters for him, which showed that other chimpanzee still respected Amos even he wasn't strong anymore. Frans de Waal suggested that an alpha-male chimpanzee has two major tasks: maintaining peace and giving emotional support to others. An alpha male is responsible for stopping fights in the group. When other members are depressed, the leader will encouraging them by giving out gestures or hugging. Like the great leaders in human history, an successful alpha male has to show compassion towards others. If an alpha male is too violent to his subjects, he will soon be overthrown.

An Alpha male isn't a symbol of brutal and horror; on the contrary, he has the abilities of demostrating leadership and empathy.

Money vs Currency

Human has been using gold and silver to trade their time and laboring for thousands of years. However, as the scale of commercial events escalates, people have invented fiat currencies to replace precious metals. Governments print countless of bills and promise those papers have same economic power as gold and silver. People can give those bills back to the banks and exchange for precious mental at anytime they want. Although both money and currencies are medium of exchange, they have one essential difference: money can store value for long period of time, while currencies can not. Governments can decrease the purchasing power of fiat currencies by increasing currency supply. This process is constantly transferring people's wealth to government and banking system. Throughout history, fiat currencies always turn into piles of meaningless paper because our economic system eventually leaks all the purchasing power out of them; in the other hand, the ultimate money, which are gold and silver, cannot be printed. Their scarcity has kept them valuable over centuries.
