“Civility is not about silencing our differences, but about speaking truth with grace.” – Alexandra Hudson, The Soul of Civility
Join us for a conversation with author Alexandra Hudson on the urgent issue of civility in our modern world.
The call for a return to civility has been ever present through human history. From the earliest written words of Ancient Egypt and Babylon to the height of Athenian philosophy and the core of Christian and eastern religious faiths, a belief that the need to cast off our barbaric nature and behave better towards each other is a constant call to action of humankind.
