In this episode, host Todd Ferguson sits down with legal scholar John Inazu to discuss navigating deep disagreements within a pluralistic society. Drawing from his latest book, Learning to Disagree, Inazu explores how the First Amendment right of assembly informs our understanding of belonging and differences. The conversation highlights the importance of "playing the long game" by building trust through lived experiences and interpersonal relationships rather than seeking instant resolutions. Ultimately, Inazu offers a hopeful perspective on discovering common ground while still honoring the depth of our religious and moral convictions.
