No better time to engage civic discourse across parties + divides than two days after an election. We’ve only just begun. This was so good last night. And needed. There is hope and efficacy in convening unlikely gatherings with guidelines and a talking stick. Then deep listening.
Amazing Solutions Circle last night. Participants’ (age 17 to 70+) chosen topics were Jackson conditions and infrastructure; preventing crime; need for resources for young people; and how to increase community engagement. Deep and respectful dialogue + listening; part 2 very soon
Congratulations to @DonnerKay for being honored at Pink Friday. As she says, she's breast cancer thriver.
