Ep. 160 Election 2024: How Seeing Each Other Can Combat Polarization

  • Summary

  • Could political polarization be addressed by something very simple – getting to know each other better? David Brooks argues that polarization stems from an urgent need for connection. "There are connections between seeing others and strengthening our communities and in turn, democracy," he says.

    Brooks is an opinion columnist for the New York Times. He appears regularly on the PBS NewsHour, NPR's All Things Considered, and NBC's Meet the Press. His new book is titled, How to Know a Person, the Art of Seeing Others Deeply and Being Deeply Seen.

    This episode is part of our ongoing series of election-related conversations.

    Guest host: Alison Jones of the DeWitt Wallace Center for Media and Democracy at Duke University.
