September 22, 2019 - Contemporary Issues
Topic: Contemporary Issues wraps up a short series on fact and falsehood in the news. We want to have meaningful, reasonable conversations with our neighbors who get their news from some other source. How can we talk to each other when we don't see our shared reality in the same way? Robb Willer reminds us that our disagreements are about values, and we do better if we try to understand the other person's moral values. This class included a TED Talk in the recorded audio.
