Listen "Equity versus Equality "
Episode Synopsis
Each person has different circumstances and deserves the exact resources and opportunities needed to reach an equal outcome. I wonder if the world and the creator view us in that same way. Aside from the policy and technical implications, what if equal outcome means reason for life? And what if there is no single outcome? I wonder if we have what we need for our current circumstance, and will continue to receive at different timeframes and with different tools the experiences needed to reach our own purpose. When thinking of it this way, it makes the justification behind comparison essentially void. Nonprofit mentioned: Dear Future Colleague, @dearfuturecolleagueDFC seeks to address inequity in educational opportunity by providing free support to underrepresented students applying to graduate school* and to competitive undergraduate and graduate scholarships. While the American education system is often referred to as a ‘meritocracy,’ pervasive systemic barriers tied to race, socioeconomic status, disability, and level of parental education prevent applications from being a level playing field.
