Krista Tippett: Who Will We Be to Each Other After the Crisis?

Hosted by Paul Holdengräber, The Quarantine Tapes chronicles shifting paradigms in the age of social distancing. Each day, Paul calls a guest for a brief discussion about how they are experiencing the global pandemic.

Today on episode 88 of The Quarantine Tapes, Paul Holdengräber and journalist and author Krista Tippett talk about what the ongoing crises around the pandemic as well as police brutality and racism have uncovered about our lives. Krista goes on to offer up a question that has been on her mind, in this moment, the question of who we will be to each other. Paul and Krista dig into how she views the position of spirituality and religion in this moment and the importance of being able to ask moral questions of our society.
