From the most recent Civility in America: A Nationwide Survey<\/a> from Weber Shandwick and Powell Tate:<\/p>\n

“Three-quarters of Americans believe that incivility has risen to crisis levels,<\/b> a rate that has significantly increased since January 2016.”<\/i><\/p>\n

“The feeling that politicians are at the root of our society’s spreading incivility runs deep<\/b>. Most Americans say that uncivil comments by politicians and other leaders encourage even greater incivility (79%).”<\/i><\/p>\n

Finally: “However, Americans are willing to take some actions to prevent incivility from becoming further normalized.<\/b>“<\/i><\/p>\n

The Peace Alliance is offering an action.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

We are asking all citizens, elected officials and candidates to endorse the\u00a0Declaration for Civil Dialogue and Common Understanding<\/a><\/h3>\n

In these critical times, individually and as a nation, we must move our conversations forward<\/b> in a positive and fruitful way, understanding that we may not all agree at all times.<\/b> However, we can be open, listen, and learn<\/b> from each other’s insights and identify shared <\/b>priorities<\/b>. This new understanding moves us toward identifying those principles and programs that are in alignment and can direct us toward a more positive future<\/b>.<\/p>\n

You are a vital part of this initiative to energize our national conversation on this topic.\u00a0<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Sign<\/b> the Declaration<\/a> now<\/li>\n
  2. Share<\/b> with your family, community and network, passing the opportunity to others<\/li>\n
  3. Take printed copies<\/a> to your local organizational meetings and groups<\/b>, then add those names to the online Declaration<\/a> (Some helpful How-To’s are also available online<\/a> under Declaration for Civil Dialogue)<\/li>\n
  4. Use this Declaration<\/a> as a topic of engagement with your local and national representatives and candidates<\/b>, encouraging them to engage and sign<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    In the next few weeks, we will be hosting online meetings <\/b>with thought leaders in this area, to support and expand this initiative. Be on the look-out for those invitations, and please join us!<\/b><\/p>\n

    Be a part of the campaign to change the discourse in our nation!<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

    In peace and \u00a0partnership!<\/p>\n
