Braver Bridge Builders
At this month's meeting we will explore the topic of American values. Our current polarized climate might suggest we have deep disagreements about American values. But what exactly are American values? Do they derive from our founding documents, so you look to “the inalienable right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness”? Or the Constitution and Bill of Rights -- protecting the rights of individuals from government overreach, foreign threats and the passions of the people. Or do they derive from something else entirely?
Come prepared to share one to three core values that you think are values that most Americans (except those in the extreme edges) share. Let’s see if together we can rediscover our shared American values.
Please feel free to bring a lunch or meet afterwards at a local restaurant.
