"What unites us? How do we overcome our divisions and differences? Can we
discover ways to bridge the chasms that separate us? What tools can we turn to?
Amid the turmoil of 2020’s U.S. elections, we launched a project devoted to
exploring these questions. We called it “We Are Not Divided” — a cheeky name,
but cheeky with a purpose. We wanted to encourage readers to rethink and
reexamine their assumptions about how divided we really need to be.
We recently decided now is an opportune time to revisit those stories.
With predictions of everything from political violence to civil war — along
with just as many “counterpoints” arguing that hyping those threats only makes
them worse — it’s clear that fresh fears are circulating about American
instability. So, over the past couple of months, we’ve republished stories from
We Are Not Divided that address those fears. See previous editions here and
here. We select articles that feel relevant to the moment, and each month’s
roundup has a loose theme. This month’s theme is
system change. How do
massive systems of division get overhauled? Can change really penetrate the
systems that keep us apart? Read on and decide for yourself."
