Topic:  The Science of Us vs THEM

How do we move from “Us vs Them” to “Me and You”?  The brain is wired to recognize who is Us and who is Them, making us unconsciously favor Us but dislike Them  - even influencing how we recognize facial expression and hear what is being said.  In this presentation we get a brief glimpse into how different areas of the brain can increase this division or be useful in moving us toward “Me and You”. 

Dona Wonacott the Secretary of the LWV of they Syracuse Metro Area will be the presenter and lead the discussion.
