Today is the anniversary of Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks’s passing. To commemorate his life and legacy, Rabbi Lamm spoke with one of the last people to ever be in public conversation with him: Professor Amy Chua of Yale Law School, and author of the runaway international bestseller Battle Hymn Of The Tiger Mother.

They spoke about what’s going wrong on elite college campuses, why the educational system is so slow to adapt, both the dangers and potential opportunities facing minority groups like Asians and Jews today, how to talk about sins in the American past, and why Succession is the best show on TV right now!
