What are your reasons *not* to talk to someone who disagrees with you politically? I'll be joining @moniguzman, @wilksopinion, April Lawson, and @ManuMeel_ for @abraverway podcast Q&A to discuss your answers to this question. Give your reply in the comments to this post:
A Braver Way Podcast@abraverway

There are so many reasons *not* to talk to someone who disagrees with you politically. What's yours? We want to hear all your deep down honest concerns, for an upcoming episode where we'll gather some politically diverse friends to hear you out and offer some responses.

This is exciting news! @BraverAngels has a new podcast, “A Braver Way," hosted by Braver Angels Senior Fellow for Public Practice Mónica Guzmán. Here Monia explains how the podcast came to be, and why there is such a need for a podcast like this to help show everyday Americans HOW they can bridge divides in their own lives: youtube.com/watch?v=E3s6FJ… @AprilALawson @BridgeUSA_ @VOCalcomm @ManuMeel_ @wmbrypaul @blankenhorn3

It was a pleasure to sit down with @LexiOHudson to hear her breathe new life into a concept some see as obsolete: civility. Her book “The Soul of Civility” is being praised as a must read for those who care about the social culture of modern society…though it is rooted in ancient wisdom. youtu.be/USEID_T1eRE?si…

Hear, hear! #DisagreeBetter @VOCalcomm @goACTA @blankenhorn3 @AprilALawson @JohnRWoodJr @moniguzman @doll_elizabeth @braverangels @ManuMeel_ @BridgeUSA_
Governor Cox@GovCox

Great to be at the Faith Matters Conference today with Judge Thomas Griffith to discuss our #DisagreeBetter initiative and what role people — religious and nonreligious — can play in healing our nation. Three things you can do to decrease depolarization: 1) Turn off cable news, 2) watch what you post on social media, and 3) get proximate with people who are different than you.

"Conflict can be a deep form of encounter...where something of their spirit gets added to yours." My friend @AprilALawson is one of the deepest thinkers, and most effective actors, in the civic renewal movement. This conversation shows why: youtu.be/_x2QdjXzlGY?si…

@JohnRWoodJr @braverangels @AprilALawson Yes, it was an awesome discussion. Excellent interviewing questions that gave her the space to give what she has, and that's quite impressive. No high drama, just solid and caring presence from start to finish.

My friend @AprilALawson is one of the most under appreciated reform figures in American civic society given her immense contributions. Here we discuss her role @braverangels, the value of conflict, and her harmonizing of conservatism and feminism: youtu.be/_x2QdjXzlGY?si…

Conflict has to be a good thing. There’s no other way we’re gonna make it - in our families or our country. The good news is, there are inspiring examples of this around you every day if you can learn to see them. @braverangels @JohnRWoodJr youtu.be/_x2QdjXzlGY?si…

You don't know the story of @braverangels if you don't know @AprilALawson This extraordinary community fights to build trust across the divide everyday. Because of April's work we've done exactly that in colleges and communities across America on issues that hurt the most.

Who are the most important conservative thinkers in the world? One surely is @yhazony - a man who is deeply criticized. Is he well understood? I leave it to you to judge. He's a foremost voice for national conservatism. Anyone concerned with the conservative movement should listen: youtu.be/pHAOOm290k4

What a refreshing day of healthy debates with @braverangels @goACTA @BridgeUSA_ Campus Debates & Discourse symposium! Thanks for being a good example @GovCox @GovofCO #CivilityMatters #DisagreeBetter

Governor Cox@GovCox

Utah and Colorado compete over a lot of things – who has the better mountains, the better skiing, the better economy, etc. I think it’s Utah, and @GovofCO thinks it's Colorado. But one thing we agree on, is that Americans need to learn how to #DisagreeBetter and that healthy conflict results in better policy. This year as chair and vice chair of @NatlGovsAssoc, we’re setting out to do just that. We hope you’ll join us!
