Peter Boghossian on how to have tough conversations and change minds in a world that avoids both

Peter Boghossian had been a professor of Philosophy at Portland State University for a decade when he famously resigned in September 2021, on account of harassment and an increasingly illiberal atmosphere, limiting free thought, free speech, and critical discourse. He is now engaged in a "Street Epistomology" project, wherein he facilitates conversations about controversial topics, encouraging members of the public to question their beliefs and maybe even to change their minds. I spoke with him about the project, how to disagree with friends, and why he loves "My 600-lb Life."
