Being Prohuman to me means rejecting simple binaries and embracing the messy realities of human life across all four dimensions. Human relationships are complex and dynamic, but human nature contains powerful biases like tribalism and zero sum thinking that encourage us to think in black and white. To be truly Prohuman we have to craft an intentional approach to social living that centers humility, curiosity and, ultimately, courage.
