Beyond politics lies our shared humanity. When we witness each other as complete human beings - not just political views - we can break free from fear and anger.

Jill's 'aha moment' came when she learned to separate people from their politics. She realized she could release the knot in her stomach, step back, and view differences with objective kindness. She was no longer held hostage by fear.
