On Doing What I Do and How.

Posted on May 6, 2014 by Senator Murray Sinclair (retired)
A behavioural psychologist once warned me that when I speak publicly, I speak too aggressively and that one sign of that was that I often pointed.
She said that pointing was an act of aggression and that it put people on the defensive and only served to make people uncomfortable.
She suggested I should stop doing it.
I didn’t.
