Lecture description:
As humans, we tend to gravitate toward people who are similar to us.  Yes, we are tribal creatures, and this is evidenced in many different social contexts.  Ever seen footage of a Taylor Swift concert?  Well, that’s a tribe — but it doesn’t stop there.  Our political system has them, too.  So, why do some people refuse to listen to anyone who espouses a different political opinion from the one they hold?  How is this harmful to our community?  Furthermore, how might we transcend differences to build stronger relationships with family, colleagues, and neighbors?  This workshop not only identifies a major challenge we’re confronted with but also offers practical suggestions to mitigate some of the interpersonal difficulties we experience.
