Fisher, R. M.2019-08-262019-08-262019-03-15http://hdl.handle.net/1880/110803Dr. Fisher talks of how he is moving to make a commitment over the next 10 years to enter the political sphere and politics. He shares his experience professionally as a teacher and differentiates that from being an educator (especially, adult educator). He questions and critiques politics and political figures but also supports their differing pieces of the puzzle toward the making of a great citizen, great society, etc. What makes a process philosophy, thinking, person is explored, and he shows his intention to study the history of transformation in the last 100 years especially and how it is essential to understand what is transformation and its role in the political sphere and politics of which he mentions Marianne Williamson as an exemplar for a holistic-integral approach as she is currently running for President of the USA in 2020. Always asking: "What are we learning?" is key to his educational philosophy and thus "learning to learn" is both a meta-cognitive skill but also the basis for a great learner/citizen and it is essential to analyzing the problems and crises we face individually and collectively.

Note: re: my comment on "democracy" in the video tells of my ambivalence and how it is actualized in the contemporary W. societal context under the paradigm of "politics" (and hard data, quantities of votes, etc.)--this critique is also expressed nicely by the futurist Ruben Nelson as "Democracy [in a good sense] is about respectful relationships" (see https://vimeo.com/320297382)enUnless otherwise indicated, this material is protected by copyright and has been made available with authorization from the copyright owner.
