How to Disagree Without Hating Each Other with Tim Shriver

We all believe people deserve dignity. Until someone says something outrageous at Thanksgiving dinner. Or posts something truly unhinged on Facebook. Or votes differently than we do. So how do we hold on to our convictions without letting contempt take over? Kate talks with her friend Tim Shriver, longtime chairman of Special Olympics, about what his extraordinary family taught him about belonging, why outrage can feel so satisfying, and what it might look like to treat people with dignity—even when we really, really disagree. Because maybe the goal isn’t to agree on everything. Maybe it’s to remember that we belong to one another.
