We examined the years-long decline in respectful debate in the political realm (but not the specific contentious issues themselves), the role of media and social media, and how we might find common ground and best respond as individuals and organizations to exhibit model behavior.

Steve Davidson, Chair of Agenda:Alexandria and moderator for the evening, said that civil discourse is perfectly aligned with the mission of the organization, and the topic needed to be addressed now more than ever.

The panel was composed of:

  • Kate Woodsome, Pulitzer Prize-winning Journalist(formerly at The Washington Post), Resilience Strategist, and publisher of Invisible Threads
  • JoAnn Koob, J.D., Director, Liberty & Law Center, Antonin Scalia Law School, George Mason University
  • Lt. Victor Ignacio, Field Operation Section, Alexandria Sheriff’s Office
  • Carter Flemming, Community Volunteer and Activist on many Alexandria Issues, and a 2017 Living Legend
