Kali led Friends in a meeting for learning with three guests, Tennesseans who are involved with Braver Angels, a grassroots effort to heal partisan divides in American society through a series of structured workshops, debates, and other events. For a brief description of Braver Angels in action, Kali recommended this crowd-sourced definition: https://braverangels.org/what-common-ground-looks-like/ 

Braver Angels is active in West Tennessee and Middle Tennessee, and plans are underway for a workshop that will bring together "Red" and "Blue" Tennessee lawmakers. To date, individuals in Memphis have participated in trainings. However, the movement has not yet taken hold in Memphis. Kali hopes that Memphis Friends will be called to help change this.
