Specifically how to challenge notions of justice and injustice, and how to conceive of better ways for the world to be politically and systemically

I find this quote to be the most impactful in the whole article. During my educational career I have been that it is okay to not agree with the way things are, but there has never been encouragement to envision ways to better the things that are wrong. I look forward to developing the skills to create new visions of how the world should be as well as feeling the encouragement to do so.

this passage exemplifies the 3 main benefits as described earlier in the article as it is a key example of using critical thinking to view beyond the norm with the ability to envision is different, or potentially, more prosperous environment.

There are 3 main benefits of studying Philosphy. The first is that philosophy teaches you to think and write logically despite the career you end up having. The second is that philosophy teaches you to seek fundamental truths, this can be very beneficial in a world where there is a lot of misinformation, encouraging you to seek different perspectives to discover what the truth is in many different scenarios is important. The final reason is that Philosophy gives us the tools, as described mostly in the first reason, to critically view the world and not take it at face value, but rather reimagine the truths we are told and how things can be different.
