Today is #worldphilosophyday and I am sharing the place #philosophy has in my life and how it changed over the years.
As a teenager I hated it, at school analytical philosophy was very far from my interests and not even Sophie's World from Jostein Gaarder brought me closer to it. As an young adult in the university, I only read Greek philosophers and though their work is unquestionably relevant, it seemed very far from my reality.
In universities and academy, Philosophy is still dominated by white men but minoritized groups start slowly to sit at the table too. And yes, they are as good and as bad as white men.
