In this episode, we explore some of the themes from my book, The Blank Slate: The Modern Denial of Human Nature. Why do some people cling to the belief that humans are blank slates, with no influence from evolution or genes? Join me as I unpack the fears driving this denial, born from common misconceptions, like mistaking sameness for equality, and believing we can eliminate traits in humans through training. #pinker #cognitivepsychology #podcast #psychology #science #stevenpinker #motivation #success #mindset #sound #mind #brain #imagination #languagedevelopment #language #words #magic #memorizing #social #mechanism #humanbehavior #fear #expressions #music #universal #genetics #equalitynow Follow me: Twitter: https://bitly.ws/3eEx6 Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/Stevenpinkerpage/?_rdc=1&_rdr Website: https://stevenpinker.org/
