In the course of our lives, we talk. Our language mediates our culture and our identity. As our lives progress, we make discoveries, but above all we encounter other cultures, other identities. The endless exchanges of words, of ideas, of ways of being and existing. How rich, and how spiteful. A culture’s first instinct is to consider itself the best, yet we know that humanity has been intercultural and polyglot since the dawn of time. Depending on how generous people are, it works out well, or it works out badly. In today’s world every culture is the result of encounters, for good or ill, that humans have made since they first walked and talked. We’re all the same, but we’re also all Wallawalla, Nambikwara, Breton, Basque, Tutsi, Chechen, Samoyed, Ainu, Berber. Humanity is nourished on diversity.
