Experts say we must look at the root causes of our pain, and yet the US is in the grip of a battle over exactly that — with efforts to ban books, censor news, cancel truth-tellers and hide history. What can we do to help one another look at what feels unbearable with a view to changing it? Today’s guests have experienced personal trauma and turned it into fuel for making social change.
Guests:
• Gabor Maté: Physician (retired), Public Speaker & Bestselling Author, The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness & Healing in a Toxic Culture
• V (formerly Eve Ensler): Playwright, Activist, Author, Founder V-Day & One Billion Rising
