Learning to Disagree

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Using his law school classroom and personal anecdotes, John Inazu highlights the values of empathy, compassion, forgiveness, and looking for the good in others as some of the most important tools for navigating disagreements in ways that do not dehumanize those whose viewpoints may be different from one’s own. As a college president whose role is to cultivate a campus environment that welcomes and supports a multitude of perspectives, I find Learning to Disagree to be a valuable resource for institutional leaders, as well as for professors who wish to enhance their classroom learning environment and those who facilitate professional development workshops related to dialogues across differences.”
