What Happens When Republicans, Democrats, Independents, and Libertarians Sitdown?

What happens when people with different political perspectives choose to sit at one table?In this special episode, Dr. Phillip D. Fletcher hosts a Civil Discourse Forum, bringing together voices from Republican, Democrat, Independent, and Libertarian backgrounds for a structured, face-to-face conversation.This is not a debate—it’s a practice.Participants engage topics such as political discourse, race, immigration, healthcare, education, and the state of America, while committing to a different approach: listening with intention, speaking with courage, and protecting human dignity in disagreement.Grounded in principles inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s steps to nonviolence, this forum reflects a simple but powerful idea:Civil discourse does not guarantee agreement—it protects dignity while disagreement unfolds.
