understanding EDITORIAL
It is very easy to misunderstand, to not understand, to twist the meanings and feelings of others through our own lenses. It is much more difficult to care, to love, to risk rejection.
Yet, to be human is to need, we are not solitary by choice.
In a world where there are so many ideas to disagree on, finding a common ground is too important and precious to leave to chance.
We are capable of speech, of words, of language. Above all we have the capability of understanding. Put it to use.
If you are looking to create not destroy.
If you want to build bridges not walls.
If you have a voice for peace and justice in this complicated world.
We want to create, build, and sound it out with you and amplify it for everyone to see, hear and experience.
