Through conversation, John Inazu will teach us how to disagree better while shedding light on how we often view our adversaries not only as wrong but increasingly as evil, resist notions of forgiveness, and distrust institutions that try to mediate our disagreements. These are all themes of his latest book, “Learning to Disagree: The Surprising Path to Navigating Differences with Empathy and Respect.”

John Inazu dedicates much of his scholarship to the First Amendment freedoms of speech, assembly, and religion, and related questions of legal and political theory. He integrates his faith and knowledge and shares his passion with others as founder of both The Carver Project and the Legal Vocation Fellowship, a Senior Fellow at Interfaith America and the Trinity Forum, and the Sally D. Danforth Distinguished Professor of Law & Religion at Washington University (St. Louis, Missouri).
