The Common Good
Welcome to "The Common Good". This group will seek to learn and discuss the social, cultural, economic, environmental and political issues that affect our society, community and personal lives. It is my desire we equip ourselves to use our democratic freedoms to directly affect the communities we live in for the common good. Everyone is welcome to contribute and participate in discovering how to promote a better way of life. Undoubtedly education and collaboration are key to accomplishing this.
"What shall we do? Will we continue down the path of cynical and shortsighted policies? A path that plays to our fears and divides our communities? Or, will we begin organizing Americans to think big and use our national imagination to create a roadmap for a better future?"
