Making Sense of The UK Riots: The Danger of Division

Everyone wants to feel good about themself.Our inner narrative is driven by this imperative. No-one wants to hate. We hate when we're empty. We need to find a scapegoat that explains why we're not doing as well as we wish we were.In the UK this week there have been shocking scenes of anti-immigration riots. On the surface it looks like racism. Actually there's a bigger problem.This is about hopelessness and groups of people being manipulated.Politicians and Social Media Influencers are creating a narrative that serves their agendas. There are sections of society that feel like failures. And they are being given a narrative that creates a scapegoat.This is nothing new.It's been the story of human civilisation for years. This issue is too big and complex for us to really do justice to. But it is a dynamic that threatens every team.Division.I got together Michael Ward, Clark Ray and Michele to try and make sense of the issues we've been seeing with the UK riots.
