"There are lots of reasons to feel bad about national politics. Mark Gerzon provides some well-thought-out, reality-based reasons to feel better." - James Fallows, National Book Award-winning author of Breaking the News
In this era of poisonous partisanship, The Reunited States of Americais a lifesaving antidote. At a time when loyalty to party seems to be overpowering love of country, it not only explains how we can bridge the partisan divide but also reveals the untold story of how some of our fellow citizens are already doing it.
This book, a manifesto for a movement to reunite America, will help us put a stop to the seemingly endless Left-Right fistfight while honoring the vital role of healthy political debate. Mark Gerzon describes how citizens all over the country-Republicans, Democrats, and independents-are finding common ground on some of the most divisive and difficult issues we face today.
Mark Gerzon, president of Mediators Foundation, is a veteran mediator and expert on political bridge building. He is the author of Leading through Conflict: How Successful Leaders Transform Differences into Opportunities.
