How Can We Break Down Barriers Between Groups
How Can We Break Down Barriers Between Groups
I don’t know what kind of groups this question says. Is their relationship hostile or
cooperatives? Are they states and states, conservatives and reformists,
departments within the same enterprise, or the old and the young?
Whatever relationship they are in, the most important thing is ‘trying to know
each other’. It should be profound dialogue based on courtesy to each other
rather than just ‘knowing’ each other. We can respect each other although we
cannot understand it, and vice versa. At least one of the two must be done to
break down the barriers between groups.
Therefore, the solution I think is to support making contents about 'Peaceful
Communication' under constant control(directly or indirectly), share it online and
help it to be circulated smoothly(Sharing is very important.).
If we make a place for two groups which has barriers between them to interact
directly without proper regulation and advance preparaion, there may be many
problems and conflicts hard to mediate and it will fail to break down barriers.
I recently saw a video on youtube, the social online network, which shows a
dialogue between a fan who follow her favorite kpop idols to take a picture and a
bodyguard who has to protect idols from fans. If you know anything about kpop
idol, you would probably know that their relationship is not that good and there
are always conflicts between bodyguards fans who take a photo while idols’
concert or formal schedule. So I was bit worried about their talk, but both of
them They spoke very carefully and politely, asking each other questions and
sometimes expressing one's position firmly. The comments on the video were also
very favorable to the creation and progress of such content. Although they end up
the video saying "We were friends today, but tomorrow enemies.", it could be an
answer to the question, “How can we break down barriers between groups?”
Of course there are differences between barriers of Individuals versus Individuals
and Groups versus Groups, and And things can be difeerent case by case. But
what I want to say is that we need to let society know that there is a place for
polite communication between each other and that such a situation can be
created. The ‘hottest potato’ doesn’t have to be dealt from the beginning. Experts
say sharing of arts and culture between to community is the most ideal way of
exchange. The cultural exchange between South and North Korea exemplifies it.
