...From the groundbreaking work of One America Movement... or the painstaking efforts of Care Lab.. we know this will not happen quickly and success will rely on a combination of structural and cultural factors.

For democracy to function, we need to find the narrow zones of compromise. Otherwise, we continue down the path of high-conflict extremism.

This #GivingTuesday help us buy a dinner for peace. A donation to CL supports a collaborative + functional democracy. It supports programming leaders in the Senate are on the waitlist for. It supports a women-led, high leverage org. https://t.co/ju1gNJv8Ly

Grateful to @amandaripley and @thecurtistoler for the wisdom they've brought to Care Lab's work.

[Amanda Ripley @amandaripley]

I had a very unusual dinner the other day with an ex-gang leader & a group of GOP & Dem Senate chiefs of staff.

We were there to talk about violence--and how to interrupt it once it gets going.

[Stop AAPI Hate @StopAAPIHate]

Our national report showed that 3% of reported incidents of anti-AAPI hate involved refusal of service/barring from an establishment. This has to stop. Report your experiences at https://t.co/vXWNaMnqWU.

We don't know why we feel awe, but we know it has massive social & health benefits.

"This is a very powerful starting point because it means that not only can you not humiliate someone, you can’t be indifferent. And that’s really the shift between being a spectator and being a witness.” Rabbi Ariel Burger in this week's @onbeing. https://t.co/bf1krke8Ok

Happy #caregiversday !

[Caring Across Generations #CareCantWait @CaringAcrossGen]

Today is #CaregiversDay -- a day to uplift and celebrate the paid and unpaid caregivers in our lives and communities. We are so grateful for those who do the care work that often goes unnoticed. Let’s come together to show caregivers their work is valued. #MakeCareCount

Important video from our colleagues at @GBHI_Fellows with insight from @profjohnapowell and @dsallentess on how brain functioning relates to #othering and #belonging

[Citizen Brain with Josh Kornbluth @CitizenBrainVid]

"Othering & Belonging": In these perilous times for our democracy and our planet, brain science shows us why we should favor belonging over "othering." This is the fourth video in the "Citizen Brain" series (https://t.co/pWJiBBoBz6). https://t.co/38gOfIRMYP
