For the upcoming Thursday, March 26 discussion, guest speaker Paul Gessing will clarify the February 12, 2026 Environmental Protection Agency ruling repealing the 2009 Greenhouse Gas Endangerment Finding; aiming to eliminate federal oversight on climate-related emissions.

Are you someone who believes we need passionate moderates to be a voice for the middle in American politics?  Local author, Dr. Brent Jones, recently completed and published The American Centrist: A Moderate Manifesto.  

Dr. Jones read about Braver Angels in his research for the book and applauds the work of our organization.  He will be appearing at Page 1 Books (5850 Eubank Boulevard NE, ABQ) on March 29 11am as the featured author. Come check out his book and learn more about his vision for healing our democracy.

Learn more at The American Centrist website.  The book is available at the bookstore, as well as Kindle and hardcopy versions available online at Amazon.

Research shows that curiosity about the views of others can open the mind, reduce fears, encourage self-awareness and promote humility.  Media and culture often promote the idea that we should view those who disagree with us as enemies or individuals not worth talking to.  

Join us for a structured conversation from the Living Room Conversations (https://livingroomconversations.org/) organization that will help us experience being more curious and less furious about "those people" on the other side.

Please feel free to bring a lunch or meet afterwards at a local restaurant.
