September 10th was a devastating day for our nation. There are no words for the loss of Charlie Kirk. Our hearts are with his family and loved ones. It’s on each of us to stop this dangerous cycle of mutual destruction. No matter where we stand on the political spectrum, here’s what we must do in the wake of this tragedy.
Before the events in Utah, today—September 11—was already a somber day of remembrance. Twenty-four years on, we honor the lives lost and the resolve that followed. That same resolve is what we need now. We are all shocked by the assassination of Charlie Kirk yesterday. We are saddened—and moved to act—by the pattern of political assassinations and attempts over the last 14 months. We will avoid speculation and await official updates even as we care for one another and our communities.
How do we, as Braver Angels members, respond?
We’re delighted to announce Maury Giles as the next CEO of Braver Angels. Let us tell you a bit more about Maury and how we arrived at this exciting decision.

WOW! What an intriguing and educational experience listening to this roundtable! There was so much content to try to digest, but my mind was gleefully challenged trying to keep up with all the ideas and perspectives shared.
Thanks for this thought-provoking discussion and making it available for others to observe.
Look forward to the next one!
