Summary

Meet Daniel Lubetzky, founder of KIND Healthy Snacks and son of a Holocaust survivor. He is irresistible, a force for good that is asking us to reflect on what our role in the conversation can be. His point of view is grounded in his father's experiences during the Holocaust, most especially in a single moment of unexpected kindness that saved his father's life. Daniel wonders with Kelly about the sickening power of dehumanization in social division and the important, if exhausting, work of bridging divides. This 5-part series on Rupture and Repair has been funded by the Arthur Vining Davis Foundations. We work with them regularly and have been inspired by their commitment to share the principles and practices of bridge building.
