Revisiting this essay from @pluralistic & I am reminded of a primary school teacher I happened to fall into coversation with. She mentioned that there were a number of #Native kids in her class. She was struck, whenever there was a lesson or an exercise that called for kids to compete against each other, the Native kids just Would Not. Their way was to arrive at a consensus, & there was just no way to shake them loose of that.

I really really really want somebody to find an excuse to get #CoryDoctorow & #HeatherCoxRichardson on a stage to have a conversation. The interference between their two viewpoints & knowledge bases would, I'm almost certain, precipitate out some •very• interesting thoughts & insights.
