Description
We’re living in difficult times. Our nation is increasingly polarized and our campuses are plagued with distrust and fear. As we move into 2022, we share three blogs that we hope will inspire, ease divisions, and cultivate a sense of wonder and humility. Today’s episode includes Jonathan Haidt’s essay, “True Diversity Requires Generosity of Spirit (https://heterodoxacademy.org/blog/true-diversity-requires-generosity-of-spirit/),” Erec Smith’s “A Rhetoric of Common Values (https://heterodoxacademy.org/blog/a-rhetoric-of-common-values/),” and a new essay by Angel Parham and David Diener, “How Our Fraught History Can Still be the Source of Unity (https://heterodoxacademy.org/blog/trouble-in-the-time-of-thanksgiving-how-our-fraught-history-can-still-be-the-source-of-unity/).”This episode was hosted by Zach Rausch.
