Playing for Team Human today, investigative journalist and author of “The Next Great Migration: The Beauty and Terror of Life on the Move,” Sonia Shah. Shah challenges conventional assumptions about migration and reveals how it has long been central to the human experience. Further, she looks ahead to how climate change will force the next great human migration, and how we can all view each other not as strangers, but as fellow humans.

In his opening monologue, Rushkoff connects the plight of billionaire technologists imagining apocalyptic scenarios and building bunkers with the migration patterns of the Israelites in Torah. "We'll always be welcoming strangers because we'll always be strangers, ourselves."

This episode of Team Human was recorded live at IMPAKT Festival 2020 from Utrecht.
