The Problem of Othering: Towards Inclusiveness and Belonging

The problem of the twenty-first century is the problem of “othering.” In a world beset by seemingly intractable and overwhelming challenges, virtually every global, national, and regional conflict is wrapped within or organized around one or more dimension of group-based difference. Othering undergirds territorial disputes, sectarian violence, military conflict, the spread of disease, hunger and food insecurity, and even climate change.

  5. "[L]ead to a 'default position' to organize by 'tribe--us/them, a hostility toward the unfamiliar or unknown,' and to 'push back against those who are different.'"

    Does anybody know anybody this dumb? Actually. This dumb. To believe such Transnational Jesusings?

    Cowards grumble--while people "push the stool, out from under" the others they know. The others they DO understand. Who insist, it's their (other) way, or your demise. The dummies don't see the other option. The cowards deny it, with their own lying eyes.
