About Beyond Civility

Beyond Civility addresses the challenge we face in trying to bridge the informational and ideological chasms that separate our leaders from each other and from their own diverse constituencies. It proposes antidotes to toxic language and styles of communication that obscure rather than clarify meaning, that repulse rather than invite understanding, and that polarize rather than unify citizens.
