Loving conflict: The intimacy that builds collaboration across division | Anna Lecat | TEDxGraz
TEDx Talks· 2025-12-16 17:13
Growing up, we are told conflict is bad. Avoid it. Be nice to each other. However, avoiding conflict does not keep us together. It pulls us apart. Silence, resentment, lost connections. Every conversation you don't have is a connection you have already lost. My choice is different. I love conflict. Not violence, not war, not aggression. Rather, the conflict in hard conversations, the tensions, you know those moments that we all run away from. I used to run too until I didn't until I engaged in the conflict ...

TEDx Talks· 2025-12-16 16:49

How do cities decide which buildings to preserve and which to tear down or which people to include in a history textbook and which to omit.These are not random events. Even a house accidentally destroyed in a fire can be rebuilt exactly as it was or in a totally new fashion. Similarly, someone, some volunteer or curator decides which objects will be put on display in a museum and what the labels about them will say.These decisio ...
