What humanity’s earliest ancestors can teach us about modern-day political outrage
Description
Even though some anthropologists believe humans are apex predators, a new book argues we’re actually not.
Author Kurt Gray posits understanding our vulnerabilities – coming to terms with our former reality as prey – could help us co-exist in tumultuous political times.
Today on The Wheelhouse, Gray, a social psychologist at The Ohio State University, discusses his book, “Outraged: Why We Fight About Morality and Politics… and How to Find Common Ground.”
