[5/6] We recognize that Beth Strano’s words have been deeply meaningful to our community, & to the communities in which you all operate. Beth has asked that those who wish to share it simply use her version of the poem.

“If we are gonna do the work of what it means to grow into being fully human, to grow into the promise of America … then we have to be teachable. We have to be moldable. We have to be willing to engage one another and be wrong sometimes.” — @revjenbailey onbeing.org/programs/jenni…

The People's Supper has an essay about empathy, and designing dinners to create connection, in the forthcoming book "Designing for Empathy" edited by Elif M. Gokcigdem. Look for it on shelves in early May! #PeoplesSupper
