"On almost a daily basis people tell me they’re angry about the country’s past and present. Hopeless or despairing about its future. On this Fourth of July, do we dare celebrate the country? Condemn it? Simply walk away from it?" #July4th https://bit.ly/3xRrW2W
On this July 4th, maybe you're frustrated with, even hate, America. What then? -- The Harwood Institute

"This campaign is a response to the many challenges that disturb the soul of our society. It is an acknowledgment that we have had enough of the status quo, enough of the division and enough of inaction." https://bit.ly/3W5lbnO

Tonight’s presidential debate is an important milestone in a crucial election year. But chances are it will leave many of us feeling increasingly divided, anxious, or frustrated. It doesn’t help that most news outlets are already talking about how one side or the other might “win” the debate, reinforcing the battle lines. Last night, our pre-debate event was designed to offer something fundamentally different. A framework for navigating these troubled times in a more hopeful way. You can watch the recording here: https://lnkd.in/gZ-5TsH2
