The idea behind Ear To The Common Ground is what if we could let go of the poisonous contempt that has infected the politics of our country. What if, instead of consuming the polarizing content that plays on our inherent and most human fear of the other, we tapped into our equally human qualities of compassion? What if we listened a little more and spoke a little less? What if we found a diverse group of folks who all shared common ground by their love of a musical artist and put them together to break some bread and share their perspectives and food? We hope you enjoy the series on your local public television station or online at our youtube channel.
