“Turning Toward Each Other and Away from Political Violence”

Americans are familiar with the idea of E pluribus unum: Out of many, one. But political violence—fomented on the left and right with calls, for instance, of “by any means necessary”— is resulting in a culture in which we demand that others hold our point of view, or be punished. How do we come together, first to seek to understand what others think, and then to find common ground? What tools and training might each of us need to live in a multicultural, multi-ethnic, politically heterogeneous populace where we cannot possibly come to agreement? Are we no longer willing to live and let live?
