CIVIL UNITY The Radical Path to Transform Our Discourse, Our Lives, and Our World

In conversational tones, positivity expert Shola Richards shares his playbook on how each person can begin to lead the charge to bring kindness back in a society in which hate and indifference are often fueled by social media and 24/7 news. Richards candidly shares how being the recipient of hateful behavior for far too long led to a suicide attempt that started him on this path to greater global civility. Well-placed moments of humor add much-needed levity as Richards portrays "the shrug squad" with appropriately sarcastic inflections. Listeners will appreciate the suggestions for actionable ways to disagree with others effectively, nurture mental health, and look past today's tidal waves of information in order to meaningfully connect with each other as fellow human beings.
