Corporate Lawyer or Hero? Toughest Sorbet vs. Pie Ethics Ever!

Ruth Chang, a philosophy-turned-law law legend, says hard choices aren’t about ignorance but values 'on a par,' comparing dilemmas to picking between 'lemon sorbet and apple pie' — both delicious but totally different vibes. As Chang explains, 'When alternatives are on a par, it may matter very much which you choose.' What a blessing to wield the 'normative power' to 'create reasons for yourself' while morally juggling mortgages and marginalized voices!
