TTLR EP526: Michael Fosberg - Why Social Media Is Actually Anti-Social
“It's a universal human experience. We're all on this journey of identity. It doesn't stop. It's not like you get to a certain place in your life and you go, ‘that's it I'm done, I know exactly who I am, where I'm going and what I'm doing’.”
“We have more in common than we have differences.”
We all experience a degree of separation from others in our lives. We can be in the same room yet feel worlds apart. Politics and especially our own notions of ourselves and others can complicate the innate connection and familiarity to other human beings. This is fine as a starting point but today’s guest, Michael Fosberg, wants the world to know that great change is possible with a broader point of view. He reminds us that our lives are ever changing and that we’ll never really fully arrive at coming to know ourselves and those around us and curiosity rather than judgement lends itself better to the journey.
In a world where people often argue and disagree, Michael’s message helps us find common ground and bridge gaps, look beyond labels and engage in meaningful conversations that bring people together.
Michael Fosberg is an author, playwright, performer and activist who’s been speaking to national media about race and identity issues for over a decade. He was raised as a white man only to later discover that he has prominent black roots. He worked directly worked with the United Way Worldwide, the FBI, The Boeing Company, The Dept of Homeland Security, Harvard College, Purdue University among others, to reshape the conversation about race, identity, diversity, and inclusion. His memoir; Incognito: An American Odyssey of Race and Self Discovery was published in 2011 and his latest book is, Nobody Wants to Talk About It: Race, Identity, and the Difficulty in Forging Meaningful Conversations.
