The civil rights icon Ruby Sales names "a spiritual crisis of white America" as a calling of this time. During the days of the movement, she learned to ask the question, "Where does it hurt?" It’s a question we scarcely know how to ask in public life now, but it gets at human dynamics that we are living and reckoning with.

This interview is edited and produced with music and other features in the On Being episode "Ruby Sales — Where Does it Hurt." Find more at onbeing.org.
