The Dignity Movement: Ending Rankism

Check out this fascinating talk by Robert Fuller, former president of Oberlin College and author of Somebodies and Nobodies: Overcoming the Abuse of Rank, at this TEDx event in Berkeley California.

 

Here's the Dignity Movement's mission from their Facebook page:

We believe that rankism, the exploitation or humiliation of those with less power or lower status, is an indefensible affront to human dignity. Treating people with dignity, no matter where they fall on the corporate, social, familial, or political ladder, is the key to overcoming rankism in all its manifestations.

Find out more about the Dignity Movement at their Facebook page here.
