Nicholas Kristof is a Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist and longtime New York Times columnist whose reporting has taken him from the Tiananmen Square massacre to the brothels of Cambodia and the opioid-ravaged communities of his own hometown in Oregon. In this conversation, Amanda and Nick explore how witnessing atrocities shaped his belief that individual acts of courage can stand against overwhelming darkness. They also discuss why understanding people we fear or condemn is essential for solving real problems, how hope collapses and regenerates in communities from Darfur to Yamhill, and why personal resilience often begins with the simple fact of being loved.
