Is the world actually getting better? | UpFront
In this week's UpFront, we challenge author and Harvard professor Steven Pinker on his new book Enlightenment Now: The Case for Reason, Science, Humanism and Progress, in which he argues that data shows the world is becoming a better place. And in the Arena, we ask journalist Afua Hirsh and Claire Fox, founder of the Institute of Ideas think tank, about racism in the United Kingdom, and the kind of conversations needed to address it.
