Say the right thing : how to talk about identity, diversity, and justice / by Yoshino, Kenji,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."In the current period of social and political unrest, conversations about identity are becoming more frequent and more difficult. On subjects like critical race theory, gender equity in the workplace, and LGBTQ-inclusive classrooms, many of us are understandably fearful of saying the wrong thing. That fear can sometimes prevent us from speaking up at all, depriving people from marginalized groups of support and stalling progress toward a more just and inclusive society. Kenji Yoshino and David Glasgow, founders of the Meltzer Center for Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging at NYU School of Law, are here to show potential allies that these conversations don't have to be so overwhelming. Through stories drawn from contexts as varied as social media posts, dinner party conversations, and workplace disputes, they offer seven user-friendly principles that teach skills such as how to avoid common conversational pitfalls, engage in respectful disagreement, offer authentic apologies, and better support people in our lives who experience bias. Research-backed, accessible, and uplifting, Say the Right Thing charts a pathway out of cancel culture toward more meaningful and empathetic dialogue on issues of identity. It also gives us the practical tools to do good in our spheres of influence. Whether managing diverse teams at work, navigating issues of inclusion at college, or challenging biased comments at a family barbecue, Yoshino and Glasgow help us move from unconsciously hurting people to consciously helping them"--

Digital dharma : how AI can elevate spiritual intelligence and personal well-being / by Chopra, Deepak,author.;
"As a spiritual icon who continually explores the intersection of cutting-edge science and personal growth, Deepak Chopra, M.D., tackles the little-discussed spiritual benefits of AI and its vast potential to solve the greatest mystery confronting us: consciousness itself. By navigating the intricate balance between innovation and spirituality, Chopra explains that although AI cannot duplicate creative intelligence, it can vastly enhance our own. Humans have natural intelligence, not the artificial kind. We lead emotional lives; we are capable of insight and self-reflection. Despite these things, however, the human mind is deeply artificial in many ways, and the negative connotations of the word "artificial" -- fake, lifeless, illusory, mechanical, arbitrary -- apply to our everyday life. Instead of wondering how to make a machine conscious, we should be asking how a machine can make us more conscious. In this book, Chopra shows readers the seven levels of intelligence, including survival and safety, emotional connection, self-worth, abundance, knowledge, wisdom, and the infinite possibilities. These levels are understood by AI on a surface level, but humans can interpret them more accurately and with a self-knowledge that no chatbot can duplicate. But by asking the right questions, you can bring AI into your inner world, which is where personal growth happens. Chopra provides a personal assessment for readers to locate their level of awareness, and exercises to help readers attain their goals"--
