Episode notes

Ebe petel is an interfaith activist and author. He has written a new book called we need to build field notes for a diverse democracy. Ebe talks with curtis chang about his own background, how he came in to this inter faith work.

This week Eboo Patel, a Muslim pioneer in interfaith work, joins David and Curtis to discuss his book, We Need to Build. They discuss the need to allow people of different faiths to be able to bring their whole selves, including real and significant religious disagreements, to these conversations. Eboo also helps us understand why it is so important to do more than criticize what we don’t like in the culture, but instead to adopt the more mature approach of actually building what we want to see in society.
