From our Conservative/Liberal Event
“(The Round Table) opened my eyes and heart big time to other point of views on life and issues. So grateful . . . Being a conservative, I was a bit scared, frankly, but it was handled professionally and with extreme tact.”
From our Vaccination Event
“(The Round Table was) a very civil conversation with open-minded folks from all over the spectrum, i.e., the opposite of how most of America seems to be communicating."
From our LGBTQ+ Event
"I feel that this way of sharing emotions and ways of thinking provide a very comfortable setting. I probably never would have had this open conversation with other individuals anywhere else."
From our Healing our Country Event
You have looked at a HUGE dynamic in our culture and decided to ignore it no longer. Bless you. This is probably the single most important thing we could all be doing . . . We got here after centuries of following paths that did not serve us well; we will not change it overnight. Patience, courage and persistence, tempered with love. You are making a difference. I am honored to have been part of it.
From our People of Color/White People Event
I was shockingly surprised at the conversation that ensued during that event. The people that communicated there were from all spectrums of our society and yet I found that all were heard, all chose to hear, and regardless of our individual ideologies, there was a moment of pure connection. I am still, to this day, baffled but whatever occurred, at least for that several hour event, we respected each other. It was quite powerful.
