Braver Angels was inspired by Abraham Lincoln, who not only called on Americans to summon the "better angels" of our nature - but called on us to find the courage to pursue a more perfect union, "with malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right."

A new study found that Americans are far less polarized than we’re led to believe. There’s more common ground than there are divides to bridge. The problem isn’t that we can’t get along. It’s that we rarely get the chance to try. Learn more: livingroomconversations.org

We owe each other dialogue involving: 1 Humility: the ability to say, “I might be wrong,” 2 Patience: the willingness to stay with complexity instead of running away from it. 3 Courage: the belief that encountering a perspective we don’t share does not make someone an enemy.
