Reference no: EM133290290

Case: The TEDxTalk by Dana Gioia discusses people's relationship to place. After viewing the video, reflect upon the message. Your response to Gioia's text should address the following:

What does Gioia mean when he says "it is often when you are being most local that you become most universal"?

Gioia argues that we only exist only in real places. Do you agree with his statement?

According to Gioia, globalization is leading to a loss in the connection to our local community. He encourages his viewers to be present in their own place. Tell the class about your community. How can you be present in your community? In what ways can you help create the world in which you want to live?
