Better Angels is Putting Out the Political Polarization Fire | John Wood Sidewalk Talk

How do you speak truth from a place of love and compassion? Gift yourself the tools you need to bridge racial, economical and political gaps with today's episode, featuring John Wood of the Better Angels organization.
The biracial son of two culturally and economically opposite parents, John Wood has spent the better part of his life connecting across categories. The former Vice-Chairman of the Republican Party of Los Angeles County and nominee for congress, now works as a national leader for Better Angels- a grassroots organization uniting political parties and opposing populations around the country, founded by internationally renowned therapist, Dr. Bill Doherty.
John shares some of his background, and the philosophies that guide his life and work with Better Angels. Hear his profound ideas around communicating love and compassion through empathetic speech. Drawing inspiration from non-violent leaders like Martin Luther King, John doles out insights and offers surprising suggestions about the type of conversational discipline we all should develop to fight against the active efforts to divide us.
