Feel Good Friday...What is HIP?

Feel Good Friday…What is HIP?

HIP stands for the Heroic Imagination Project. This project, begun and designed by Stanford psychology professor Philip Zimbrado, intends to create a process to identify and foster heroes in the world. The bad guys have ways to creat and foster suicide bombers, torture specialists, and murderers maybe we should start a process to do just the opposite. Let’s seed the world with heroes…people who won’t stand for injustice, inequality, and dehumanization.
Here is the TED talk on his project. This is a great idea. Check it out here:
