Where we need to get back to
Real community and why we are building tools to connect to each other:
“One of the things that characterizes people living in difficult conditions is a very well-developed sense of how dependent we humans are on each other,” says Cockburn. “There’s a sense of community that is beyond anything that one encounters in the developed world. ”
“This is what allows people to survive their difficult circumstances and to support each other physically and emotionally, given the hard work and pain that they live with,”
