Can genetic engineering redefine our world? Step into an exploration of genetic engineering's history and future as I, Bobby Frost, journey through its transformative power and ethical dilemmas. From the discovery of DNA's structure in the 1950s to the groundbreaking creation of genetically modified foods and FDA-approved human insulin, we trace the milestones that have shaped this fascinating field. We'll confront controversial moments, like the gene-edited babies scandal in China, and ponder the moral questions looming over this rapidly advancing technology. As Thanksgiving approaches and I navigate podcasting solo, I also share a slice of my life and a personal update about my son's new passion for basketball.
Our discussion takes a deeper look into how genetic engineering could influence societal norms, especially within the Black community. Imagine a world where parents have the choice to alter their children's traits to fit beauty standards—what would that mean for culture and ethics? By drawing parallels to significant historical technological shifts, like the cotton gin, we highlight how innovation continuously reshapes human experience. To wrap up, I invite you to connect with me online, whether you're into college football, NBA 2K, or just looking for engaging conversations. Join me on social media under Bobby Frost Media, and let’s build community together.
