विश्वभारती संकल्पना : मानवतेचा जागतिक संवाद

मानवजातीची भाषा, धर्म, भूगोल, संस्कृती वेगळी असली तरी तिची स्वप्नं, संघर्ष आणि शोध मात्र सारखेच असतात. म्हणूनच “विश्वभारती” ही संकल्पना केवळ एक सांस्कृतिक मांडणी नाही, तर जागतिक कुटुंब भावनेचा मूलमंत्र आहे. ही संकल्पना सांगते, मानवतेच्या विचारविश्वाला एका धाग्यात बांधा, भिन्नतेतून ऐक्य शोधा आणि ज्ञानाच्या देवाणघेवाणीतून नवे विश्व उभारा. आजच्या ग्लोबल जगात ही संकल्पना अधिकच महत्त्वपूर्ण ठरते.…

New Documentary Series Explores In Depth The Variety Of Cultures World Over

PHOENIX, AZ (July 30, 2020) - Christine Reidhead, the educator, humanitarian, Assistant Professor and the Founder and CEO of the Nonprofit Organization, AfrikRising, is producing a new documentary series called Global Humanity. This documentary series seeks to explore the hundreds of cultures and sub-cultures that exist around us and apart from us but which people rarely know about.

Apart from the major cultures that we constantly see on television, cellphones, books and magazines, there exists a plethora of different cultures adorning our planet earth that is experienced and lived by millions of people everyday. Jostling and bustling on a daily basis, these cultures from many different countries will be covered by Global Humanity for their richness, vibrance and diversity and showcased to the millions of people around the world.

Right from the heart of the many African nations and their myriad cultures buzzing with colors, life and beautiful traditions dating back to thousands to the idyllic shores of Mexico to the massive variety of Native American cultures spread across North America, the beauty of these cultures has to be seen and experienced to be believed. To be wondered at. One can easily fawn at how wonderful these different cultures are to the point that they'd right away book a plane ticket and start exploring, to experience these cultures while one is still breathing.

Global Humanity will also showcase a series of interviews presenting the incredible traditions, food culture and art that highlight those particular cultures. People will also get to see the remarkable differences, the warmth, the hospitality and the fact that we, after all, aren't that different. A passion to present the culture for what it really is and who the people really are culture will shine through every episode of the documentary. Do watch as the inspirational stories unfold one by one.

In my head, I had sort of justified it all by saying human beings break down to three categories: You've got circles, squares and triangles. Squares are people that are neutral. They live life by knowledge and logic and scientific approach to finding information and truth, and they build people very practical things. So if you go to a square and say, "I'm homeless," he'll build you a building. He won't think anything past that. Squares give us the tools and shelter and grids and roads and blah, blah, blah. And then you have the triangles, who are people that are led by power and money and ego. These things all work on a pyramid structure: You have one person at the top and billions at the bottom. And then you have the circles, who are just led by love. The concept of the universe is built on circles. I think evolution is built on a circular sort of shape, and any natural organisms have circular things in common: If you cut a tree you get circles, natural disasters happen in circular forms, and the planets are circles, our eyes are circles.

person:human::world:globe

As the world became the globe, people began to focus on the idea of “humanity”. Whereas a person has an individual identity, a favorite color, a personality, a member of “humanity” is characterized only by their basic needs and abstract universal qualities. “Human rights” include access to the necessities of survival. Devji argues that,

[G]igantic realities like the globe and humanity not only push the subject who would grasp them out of a geocentric or anthropocentric point of view, they also end up making his existence impossibly abstract. No longer a humanist subject, the individual serves as an example of humanity itself as a global fact, one which can not provide a mere backdrop for this individual, having stepped into the foreground and overwhelmed him.

25 years after the original recording of We Are the World by USA for Africa, 25 for Haiti recorded a second version of the song. Yates would consider all of the performers cosmopolitans. How do you interact with this song's invocation of humanity after having participated in Whole Earths World Pictures? Does this song lose meaning as it is re-recorded for a different humanitarian crisis?
