Session title: Exploring shame and 3 ideas for a better democracy

Blurb for the invitation:
In the first half we listen to a classic TED talk from Brene Brown on listening to shame within ourselves. What is the difference between shame and guilt and how does it affect us? How is shame triggered and what are the antidotes we should cultivate? Very useful for developing XRs eighth principle.

In the second half we hear three fascinating ideas on how we might improve our political democratic representation and decision making. An immediate transition to a whole new system is unlikely but are there any small steps that could be taken? As a taster: what range of privilege in society would you find acceptable if you were then to be randomly placed anywhere in it?
