Depolarizing & Communication

  • Building Bridges Maine PO Box 521 Hancock, ME 04640 US (map)

Greetings, as we try to engage with people we might not agree with, there is an excellent opportunity coming this month on Monday, May 25 at 5:30pm to depolarize ourselves and gain more engagement possibilities.

In today’s world, we often view those with different political beliefs not just as neighbors with different ideas, but as "enemies." This month's meeting isn't about changing our minds on the issues—it’s about changing how we view the people behind them, starting by examining our own biases and polarization. Sometimes it’s not easy looking in the mirror but if we can, we’re more likely to start tearing down the walls that keep us from seeing and respecting others who might see things differently!

By creating opportunities for meaningful discussions, Braver Angels works to dial down the heated rhetoric that gets in the way of real conversations and accurate understanding of our differences. The objective is not to push an agenda or change participant’s minds, but rather to provide a safe place for deeper understanding.
