Description

God Squad: Improbable conversations on faith and politics God Squad: Lonely and Extreme - A conversation about how to really fix extremism Given the dangerous rise of political extremism in America, it’s well past time we stopped wagging our fingers and do a bit of soul searching of our own about why our society is producing so many citizens unmoored from the connections that support moderation. Many experts point to the epidemic of loneliness or mass loneliness, what Hannah Arendt called “the seedbed of tyranny.” Others believe changes in relationships between men and women in the digital age contributes. We’ll speak especially about our young men on campus and off, who seem especially susceptible to the kind of loneliness that can drive extremism. Optional Lunch Menu: TBA A nervy group of liberals and conservatives who believe that dialogue and disagreement make for a good conversation, a good country and a good time.
