This Is Civity

Civity is a culture of deliberately engaging in relationships of respect and empathy with others who are different. Our world today is one of haves and have-nots, insiders and outsiders, people who belong and people who are marginalized because they are other. By reaching out person-to-person to others who are different, all of us together create the relational infrastructure to build solidarity, justice, and resilience in our communities. Our differences are our strengths. This is ‘civity.’ Our podcast showcases interviews with people bridging power-based divides to move communities forward on issues grounded in inequities.

    Michael McRay on Becoming Re-storied to See the Humanity in Yourself and Others

    In this episode, we talk with Michael McRay, experiential story coach, and founder of Becoming Restoried. Michael helps others find and share their own stories, toward healing, reconciling, and connection. The stories we create have the power to connect or divide – and when someone does not have control of their story, it can be dehumanizing. Michael helps people see both themselves – and each other – as human, which in turn connects us across divides, differences, and unknowns. For more, go to BecomingRestoried.com.

    Riaz Patel on Connecting Across Difference by Recognizing Our Shared Humanity

    In this episode, we talk with Riaz Patel, executive producer and director focusing on reality shows that depict people connecting and having positive transformations. Riaz created what he calls the EPIC system - with EPIC standing for Equalization, Personalization, Information Gathering, and Collaboration - something very in line with Civity’s approach to helping people connect across differences. Riaz has used the EPIC System to create a show called ConnectEffect, in which he has people learn about and connect with each other face-to-face - breaking through labels and getting to each other’s humanity.

    Eric Tars on How Seeing Humanity Helps Us Address Homelessness More Effectively
