So many of us live in environments where the freedom of speech is a given, yet, sometimes we don’t use it enough, especially when it comes to issues that are not affecting us directly. We might comply with group thinking, not standing up for a person from our team/division/directorate that might be treated unfairly or go against the main stream thinking. Bravery is one of the character strengths we all possess that we might choose not to access, especially if we fear top down actions. Nevertheless it might be the right thing to do to access our next level in leadership. Accesing bravery in an intelligent way will make us feel great about ourselves as well.

This video is grainy so it must be old. The lecturer talks about an outdated notion of "justice". Protesting comes with tremendous cost to the individual. Now with AI, "pre"-judgement is real. The predictive nature of a person's race, socio-economic status, social media postings and daily movement tracking through hundreds of close circuit cameras can be used to build a multi-dimensional data set for every individual which can be used to direct their activities efficiently. Obviously, in the current context, Alexis was better off elsewhere.
I agree with your sentiments but in the video I disagree that they didn’t necessarily speak up because it didn’t affect them. They were afraid. He invoked fear in them and I am sure they thought they would be asked to leave too if they spoke up. We don’t know the full situation but I assume this is a professor teaching a class to students that needed to take the class and couldn’t afford to be kicked out of it. Curious if you see it that way?
Standing up for and supporting each other is so important, it's how we will get things to change. BUT Sometimes, I believe that the fear of what will happen to us or our loved ones if we do stops us from being brave. For example, telling a couple of teenagers hanging round a play park, to please mind their language may result in them being abusive to you, something that your child will then witness, therefore do you so it anyway or protect your loved one and leave it be?

Catalina D. Flore , your post resonates deeply. Accessing bravery intelligently can indeed elevate our leadership and personal growth. It's about standing up, even when it's uncomfortable. Thank you for this insightful reminder.
Not very realistic, at least if you know students in Germany or France, but a good example of creative teaching indeed. I thought it was situated in a country like North Korea. Also, the preacher’s speech at the end was too long and spoiled the effect.
It is simply not that simple. Those in power currently answer to nobody and can destroy a person's future all too easily. Not a great answer and I offer no solution other than we actually need to educate people in understanding what they currently actually vote for. Despite what I have said the video is good because it makes people think and be more mindful about this kind of thing. Best to you all.
Absolutely agree. Accessing bravery in leadership is essential for creating a culture of inclusivity and standing up for what's right.
The world system is structured in different ways to ensure that authorities placed over man is responsible for orderliness, law enforcement and deconstruction of ideas. Having the voice to challenge authorities cannot be applied without observing procedures and regulations governing the actions of government and citizens. A law abiding citizen must follow due process and observe due diligence in countering any action taken by the government to avoid becoming a victim of lawlessness. Nothing more the narratives and difference.
