RCIScience presents: Change My Mind: Critical Thinking & Wisdom in an Age of Polarization

November 4
 @ 7:30 pm
 - 9:00 pm

Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens.” — Jimi Hendrix

It’s fair to say society feels surreal and polarized at the moment. Never before have we had access to information at the rate that we do today. But if “a lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes,” how do we discern fact from fiction?

The night before the U.S. election, buckle up with RCIScience for a conversation with philosopher, educator and author Dr. Christopher DiCarlo and co-host of CBC’s The Nature of Things, Anthony Morgan as we explore the difference between intelligence and wisdom, how social values shape our opinions and how to talk to a conspiracy theorist.

This event marks the first of the annual Love Family Endowed series.
