Are we hopelessly destined for a future of political combat in which Americans are unable to even hear the other side? What if bringing us a little closer was as simple as changing the language we use? Ted Williams III returns to the DeKalb Public Library on Thursday, March 21, at 6:30 p.m., to lead another “Arts in Action” community discussion.

Williams argues that simple changes in the way we speak can have a significant impact. Ultimately, by making simple changes we may realize the commonality of our aspirations and that a commitment to respectful pluralism provides us all with a space to co-exist.
