Building Post-Election Common Ground

“Building Post-Election Common Ground” is a conversation between Mike and Emily Green co-founders of Common Ground Conversations on Race (CGC), , Taylor Stewart, founder of the Oregon Remembrance Project, and host Tara Houston, Community and Engagement Manager, Oregon Shakespeare Festival (OSF).

The post-election narrative in this nation, regardless of who wins, will be of key importance. Political messaging and media play a significant role in the influence of perspectives nationwide.

In this talk, Mike & Emily Green will introduce paradigm-shifting new knowledge and understanding of racial dynamics in American society today through an informed lens of historical context. The evening’s conversation will highlight how we can build a common ground of understanding.

“Developing an understanding among people who disagree doesn’t mean they will find agreement. Our focus is to establish a common ground of knowledge and understanding, not necessarily agreement.” Mike Green
