As we grapple with the challenges of living in a polarized society, psychologist Kurt Gray returns to talk about how we can find common ground. In the second part of this two-part episode, Kurt, author of the new book, Outraged: Why We Fight About Morality and Politics and How to Find Common Ground, guides us through the steps to foster more civil dialogue. He also delves into the role that empathy plays in overcoming our outrage and explains why we need people who don’t think like we do.  

 

In this episode you’ll learn:

  • The three-part framework you can use to bridge divides (and where to start).
  • How storytelling can foster greater understanding of each other's perspective — and how that leads to respect.
  • Steps we all can take to start coming together.
