Big Ideas that Changed the World: Democracy (Part 5/5)

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

The series ends with the narrator's statements of conviction: The human race (is) like survivors in a life boat with one loaf of bread. There are only three ways of distributing it: you sell it so the rich gobble it up, fight for it so only the strong get it all, or you share it. The choice can only be made in a democratic world. That is why democracy is worth working toward.
