Until I read Matt Williams’s new book, I thought of hate as an emotion. Something that couldn’t be measured by science.

Sure, you can study the psychology of hate. But what about The Science of Hate—which, by the way, is the name of Matt’s new book.

As the founder of The Hate Lab, he’s spent the past twenty years trying to dig into why and how people get drawn into committing hate crimes. During this episode, we talk about his decades-long journey to sharing the very personal story that inspired the book.
