DESCRIPTION:Human beings naturally distinguish between friends and outsider
 s. We include and exclude. We tend to place positive emotions with friends
  and negative emotions with outsiders. This subconscious process is often 
 referred to as &ldquo\;othering.&rdquo\; \n\nOthering leads to exclusion\,
  stereotyping\, racism\, and worse intergroup consequences while providing
  us with a sense of inclusion\, belonging and safety. However\, it also re
 stricts our creativity and agency as we are being forced to conform to the
  norms of the group that we consider ourselves to be part of.\nHow does th
 is process of &ldquo\;othering&rdquo\; work? Can we overcome it and turn i
 t into a positive experience that facilitates social inclusion and diversi
 ty while enhancing our own sense of agency\, authenticity\, and creativity
 ?\n&nbsp\;\nIn Part 1\, we will discuss what &ldquo\;othering&rdquo\; mean
 s and why people do it.
