With only a few days to go until Election Day, the stakes couldn’t be higher. We’re choosing our next commander in chief, role model, and leader of the free world. Policy making for decades will be influenced by new Supreme Court Justices. The choice is clear, and depending on whom you ask it’s absolutely Clinton or definitely Trump. I’ve never felt this kind of divisiveness, anger, and apathy in this country. So how can the United States of America return to its strength of e pluribus unum after this November 8th?

Stephen Dinan has a few ideas. The founder of The Shift Network and author of Sacred America, Sacred World shares his perspective on how we can go from rupture to reconciliation. Listen in below.

In his book, Stephen elaborates on a transpartisan approach that transcends party lines to actually get things done; the definition of sacred citizenship, and how you and I can engage with it; why spirituality and politics could be the ultimate dream team; why a new era of the American Dream may be upon us, and why evolutionaries are the new and improved revolutionaries.

Speaking of evolutionaries, mark your calendars: Sunday, November 13th, 3-5p ET is the Day of Healing and Reconciliation. You can attend live in Washington D.C., livestream, or create your own satellite event.
