What happens when a train barrels down a track and reaches a junction where the signal to slow or stop has failed? It keeps moving at full speed—toward collision or derailment—a looming disaster now determined only by momentum. What happens when we miss signals, not only as individuals or communities, but as countries? In a social moment increasingly shaped by cognitive overload, familiar signals we once used to regulate social direction are increasingly decentered.
Our capacities to filter, interpret and respond are increasingly overwhelmed by manufactured confusion; we risk barreling toward an uncertain future, forgetting that we have the power to regulate our movement, our pace, or our destinations. The “tracks” of a country—or of countries within a world system—its infrastructure, its capacity, its ability to build new routes, reroute, or more efficiently manage collective movement, remain in our hands when we build our capacity to act at critical mass.
Watch Karen Hunter and Dr. Greg Carr break it all down in the latest episode of “In Class With Carr.”
