Sedona AZ (February 24, 2013) – Had enough of our current political discourse? Then come to a “Gathering of the Next 200” to a place beyond politics, a Parallel Democracy, on March 16, 2013, from 9:00 a.m. until Noon at St. Francis United Methodist Church, 4625 East River Road, Tucson, Arizona.
The expression of a workable Democracy while staying in connection with one another is an experiential experiment in political reconciliation. We know our current political system and dialogue is dysfunctional. Ideology trumps compromise and cooperation and dogma displaces discussion. Real problems go unaddressed (sometimes for years) so political scores can be evened.
A Parallel Democracy is an experiential experiment in political reconciliation. It is not affiliated with any group, organization, political party, movement, philosophy, ideology, belief system or religion. It will make no effort to attempt to change your current beliefs or to make you “wrong” about your political beliefs.
A Parallel Democracy will provide “an experience” and “a space” where you can practice being present with another with whom you have opposing political viewpoints, and with whom you want to experience closer and more meaningful connection.
One of the best things about the United States is each generation is entrusted with making our grand experiment work. It starts with us, each one of us, and has since independence was declared. We can start anew, each day. It’s our personal DNA and in our country’s DNA. This is an incredible opportunity to once again make a real difference for the next generations.
Join us to experience holding the polarity of different political views in a new, trans-formative and empowering way. Co-create a new possibility of relating with one another!
