Thoughts worth exploring after the confirmation hearings

 

Most of the country has been pained and appalled as they’ve watched the confirmation hearings thus far. We should be. But not all of us are experiencing this disgust and frustration for the same reasons.

Jeff Flake offered a glimmer of hope in his courageous last minute move of vote delay and investigation. We need more such moves more often by more in our government. But we also need more such movement among the citizens of this country.

Jacob Hess, PhD, has recently written and posted on the national Bridge Alliance site some ways to break through the divisiveness in our country and move forward more productively. It’s worth taking the time to read. Jacob is a good friend of mine who I have dialogued with and who I’ve helped create group and community conversations regarding some of the most divisive issues facing our country. He’s one of the primary leaders and movers in our state and even nationally in creating more civil and productive dialogue between individuals and groups who disagree passionately with each other.
