Thomas Chatterton Williams, a staff writer at The Atlantic, has taken a deep dive into the era-defining year of 2020 and written a book that's "an argument for why we must resist the mutually assured destruction of identitarianism — and really believe in the process of liberalism again."

The conversation has been edited for length and clarity.
