Common ground is key. I learned this a few years ago while volunteering for an Israeli organization with the mission to educate in order to eradicate anti semitism. I tabled with an Israeli and I would say 98% of our conversations were positive. There were a few who yelled epithets at us, unwilling to find common ground. Your book sounds fascinating.
Very wise advice. Jo Cox, who was a British member of parliament and was murdered during the campaigning for the Brexit referendum, once said: “we are far more united and have far more in common than that which divides us”

"98% of our conversations were positive." That says it all!
Exactly! Most people want to connect. 🙏🏻
I have learned much reading and writing about people with whom I have little in common. Kudos for your research and coming book.
Aw, thanks so much, Al. I wholeheartedly agree.
