Braver Faith - Braver Angels

Braver Faith

Connecting people of faith so that our communities may flourish.

Braver Angels is a civic organization that develops educational tools to build bridges between people divided over politics. We also partner with religious groups who use our tools in the context of their own religious traditions. For people of faith, civil discourse often begins in recognizing the image of God and/or the inherent dignity in our conversation partner. As a result, our approach should involve mutual respect. Respect, not agreement, is an essential key for a healthy discussion.

Thanksgiving Invitation

‘Thanksgiving 2024’ is an initiative to help Americans across the political spectrum, in this polarized post-election period, reflect on all there is to be grateful for about our country, our hopes for our country, and what we can do to realize these hopes. In doing so, this initiative seeks to illuminate and celebrate common values and traits of America that Reds and Blues share gratitude for, and what we love about our country across our political differences. It also seeks to inspire commitment to action toward what we hope for America’s future. This initiative will continue until Inauguration Day January 20, 2025.
