@AuschwitzMuseum @Ocasio2018 As a Jewish American, I wrote a blog after Pittsburgh on this exact topic. We can stop hate in its tracks if we stop it at discrimination and bias, not wait for it to reach genocide. This requires us to see each other as human instead of dehumanize: https://t.co/A2sgP3xSFd

My thoughts on this #listenfirstfriday.
It's a Lifestyle: The Parallel Worlds of Personal and Interpersonal Health https://t.co/uaj3y0Xsyv

[#ListenFirst Project @ListenFirstProj]

So how do we fight the tendency to shut down and avoid conversations with perspectives that are different than our own to create healthy connections again? Well very similar to our physical health, this takes ongoing practice. @JaclynLFP #ListenFirst

[#ListenFirst Project @ListenFirstProj]

Like health, our ability to listen with compassion and curiosity; our ability to quiet our sometimes violent emotion and defensiveness; our ability to give full respect to someone else’s story and struggles are skills that require daily practice and study. @JaclynLFP #ListenFirst

Great piece by @NathanBomey! As we head back to the office, how do we engage in water cooler talk around the heavy topics weighing on all of us?

[Nathan Bomey @NathanBomey]

It's time to go back to work for millions of Americans after ... a pandemic, social justice movement, election, insurrection and impeachment ... and we need to figure out how to talk to each other or, better yet, to #ListenFirst.
