Today's Learning Conversation is about the death of conversation.

Maureen and Pierre share thoughts on the value and importance of conversation for health and wellness in a democracy . 

The Death of Conversation is also the title of a podcast between Coleman Hughes and Jonathan Haidt which is resourced in this episode.  

Coleman Hughes is a black, African-American, intellectual with a podcast called Conversations with Coleman. Check him out.  https://colemanhughes.org.

Jonathan Haidt is a professor of moral philosophy, the Thomas Cooley Professor of Ethical Leadership at NYU Stern School of Business, Pierre's alma mater.  Professor Haidt's books include:

• The Happiness Hypothesis
• The Coddling of the American Mind
• The Righteous Mind:  Why Good People are Divided by Politics and Religion

Both Professor Haidt and Mr. Hughes tackle difficult subjects.  Coleman Hughes does so with aplomb which both Maureen and Pierre find remarkable.  

Here’s what Coleman says about his podcast:  “Home to honest conversations with leading intellectuals on the polarizing issues in the realm of grace, politics and racism.”   

Say what?  People are talking about these things?  Yup.  In Conversations with Coleman.
