Michael Sandel’s Thanksgiving Meal Ends in Open-Ended Questions, Ethical Dilemmas

The celebration began to go off the rails when the family went around the table to say what they were thankful for this year. When his turn arrived, the political philosopher mused, “Maybe there are some things we shouldn’t be thankful for.”
