Why we should resist nationalism | Pavan Mano | TEDxOxford

In Pavan's TED talk, he unpacks the concept of the 'nation', and outlines why it is important to resist the siren call of nationalism. He shows why we need to foster, nurture and cultivate the diversity that is already present in so many communities. Pavan Mano is a cultural theorist working in the fields of contemporary literature and cultural studies. His current research focuses on nationalism’s continual generation of outsider figures and its intersections with race, gender, and sexuality, and his forthcoming monograph examines heteronormativity as a modality for the transmission of nationalism in postcolonial settings. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
