Are identity politics getting in the way of real progress? How did these marginal academic ideas go mainstream? And is it possible to make progress without diminishing the progress we have already made? Yascha Mounk, contributing editor at The Atlantic, host of The Good Fight podcast, and author of "The Identity Trap," offers his ideas on the pitfalls of the "identity synthesis" and how we can create a more inclusive society without it.

What Could Go Right? is produced by The Progress Network and The Podglomerate.
