About

A Conversation with Robert P. George and Cornel West

Moderated by interim Chancellor Eric Wilcots, this will be a timely conversation on pluralism, civil dialogue, and constructive disagreement as the nation heads into a highly polarized midterm election season. Drawing on themes from their recent book, Truth Matters: A Dialogue on Fruitful Disagreement in an Age of Division, George and West will explore how people with deeply different views can respectfully engage with one another while pursuing truth and the common good.
