Tilling Our Common Ground
These are challenging times in these highly polarized United States. With all the anger hurled across the ideological divide and the lack of reasoned discourse in the mainstream media, is there any room in our humanist worldview for love of country and the patriotic ideals we learned in grade school? Listening to those with different or opposing viewpoints is becoming a lost art. And yet at the core, those who label themselves conservatives or liberals want many of the same things: to be safe in our homes and communities, to pursue our happiness, to have clean air and water, and good schools and jobs. This musical presentation will help till, fertilize, plant, and nurture our common ground.
