David Brooks' Mission: Combating America's Spiritual Crisis

David Brooks, New York Times columnist and author, is on a mission to address the spiritual crisis in our society. In his latest book, "How to Know a Person: The Art of Seeing Others Deeply and Being Deeply Seen," Brooks explores the importance of human connection and understanding. He believes that the ability to truly see and understand each other is crucial for healthy relationships and communities. Brooks started the non-profit organization Weave: The Social Fabric Project to support individuals working to strengthen social connections in their communities. Despite the challenges posed by modern life, such as social media and partisanship, Brooks remains hopeful that by improving our one-on-one interactions, we can have a positive impact on society.
