Sundays, May 17 & May 31, at 11:00 a.m.

Explore the myths that fuel division and outrage and how we can come together.
Join a two-part conversation on Outraged: Why We Fight About Morality and Politics and How to Find Common Ground,  by social psychologist Kurt Gray, whose work examines how our perceptions of harm influence our reactions.  Learn why we sometimes overreact to minor irritations or perceived threats, and why our country is so polarized.

  • Copies on hold at Fireside Books in Redwood City

  • Reading optional — Gray’s TED Talk and website offer quick overviews

  • Come to either session or both

standing without giving up our values.
