A Conversation with a social inhibitor

Tonight, I had a conversation with a social inhibitor

---
It happens all the time that someone do not agree with you on something
or does not have the same worldview as you
What can you possibly do?
Negotiate and discuss with civility
It does not have to result in an agreement but at least each of you would have raised his own voice
---
It is harder when you are with a social inhibitor
--
Who is a social inhibitor?
My definition is : Someone who completely denigrate a ounce of humanity in some individuals because they have different attributes, characteristics than their own.

What can you do?
Highlight than they are being discriminatory and leave them to think about their attitude and behaviour.
If they do not change, what can you do? just keep telling them when their behaviour is inappropriate.
if you are getting tired, cut the tie.
if you are not...
---
Any ideas?

We became friends and collaborators through the Breaking the Silence Initiative at Quetzal. Over the pandemic, we discussed in great details the impacts of poor mental health on wellbeing and physical health. Through our discussion, a project started emerging that will become Ways to Wellbeing - a 9 online session programme providing the tools and knowledge to communities to enhance their wellbeing. She invited me to become a director a...

Restart Party Host profile: Meet Marie

Published on Restart Project My name is Marie Lefebvre. I co-founded with Divya Pujara, Leicester Fixers in 2014 with the support of  Footpaths , a carbon footprint project,  Leicester Hackspace  and Transition Leicester. Other little things about myself, I am not a repairer yet I am absolutely delighted every time an electrical item gets opened and I can see inside it. I am also a Ph.D student at Loughborough University investigating the propensity of users of stuff to repair. I love each and every Restart Party because I always learn something new and meet lovely people.
