Dr. Bill Obrien’s Virtual Civics, Wednesday 21 November 2018

Today's program revisited the philosopher, Plato. Brett Stephens piece, published in the Opinion section of the New York Times on November, 19, 2018 titled, "How Plato Foresaw Facebook's Folly", provides the basis of that discussion. I suppose it never pays to be Cassandra, but given that philosophy plays a very important part in how we see and interact with our world, isn't it strange that education lacks the reasoning skills that would make hindsight a 20/20 option? Studying the classics is never a waste.

We also want to extend our warmest wishes to all of you from our HORN Family. Have happy holidays, stay safe, and know we're here for you..
