Martha Nussbaum

Philosophy classes are absolutely essential in today’s society. They teach critical thinking, foster empathy, and encourage students to question societal norms and values. These skills are crucial for nurturing responsible, reflective citizens capable of addressing complex global challenges.

While policies are crucial, I believe character is equally important. A leader's integrity and empathy shape their decisions and relationships. Policies can change, but character defines how they address challenges and inspire trust.
