Conflicts, differences of opinion, diverging interpretations. While there is much that pulls us together, we're often just as defined by the ways we're pulled apart. On today's show, we'll examine many of the ways disagreements make our lives more complicated--and more rich. We'll hear voices from a religious minority in China and hear both sides in a dispute over education policy changes in New York City. We'll also explore how disagreements seep into our daily lives, whether it's family arguments over the holidays or trying to please the most picky of eaters. Plus an interview and performance with Larry "Lak" Henderson--a New Jersey native who turns hip-hop music into history lessons.
