Week 11: Color-Blindness

During this week';s discussion, I learned how color-blindness affects the philosophical views of many people and how technology can suffer because of it. Without understanding differences, it is hard to come into a mutual stance where those engaged can come into agreement. I believe that agreements are powerful phenomenons that allow for actions and discussions to take event. But in order to have an agreement, sometimes a disagreement is necessary because conflict can shine a perspective on something someone else may have not thought of yet. That is why "color-blindness" impedes the ability to hold these open-discussions and should be acknowledged as counter-intuitive for curiosity. I think that if people acknowledge skin-color, then it opens discussions further. In order to have these discussions however, respect must be present from both sides. If they can articulate in a non-offensive manner, I think both sides can walk away learning more than just tolerance.
