The Importance of Resilience

I think that more substantive change does come from being able to hold a space where it's all right that the world is imperfect, but we do want to make it better. I don't think it matters so much what happened to me as it does what happens to most people. And if you look at those numbers, we don't particularly live in a meritocracy. The US has less social mobility than it used to have. It has a lot less than a lot of other countries, in fact. That's something you just want to know about your country and your system and pay attention to it.
