ARE THOSE PEOPLE THE

PROBLEM?

FEBRUARY 20TH, 2020

Scapegoating is a common human response to difficult situations. We have a tendency to point to another group of people as the source of our world’s woes. But is the solution simply saying “they” are the problem? What happens when “they” scapegoat “us” in response?

In this episode, Peter Rollins and Michael Gungor talk about how we can engage in productive conflict in a world where technological advancements have only highlighted how much we disagree, and how we can see ourselves through other people’s eyes to overcome social challenges together.

Peter Rollins is a philosopher, storyteller, producer, public speaker, and author of numerous books, including Insurrection, The Idolatry of God, and The Divine Magician.  Peter earned his PhD in Post-Structural Thought from Queens University.
