The political culture of the United States is deeply fractured. Republicans and Democrats view one another with suspicion, anger, resentment, and distrust. How can this dangerous and unsettling divide be bridged? How can we learn to understand one another, to speak empathetically and encouragingly with one another? How can we build a deeper democracy and more peaceful society?
Dr. Minch’s lecture, “Healing Conversations: How to Build Peace in Divided Communities” will address these questions and give answers to them. Professor Minch, a former Utah Valley University professor, is both a scholar of conflict and conflict transformation, and an experienced peacebuilder and teacher of peacebuilding and reconciliation in various global locations.
