Better Angels benefit concert & info session

December 16, 2018 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

  • « Our Whole Lives (OWL) Healthy Relationship And Sexuality Seminar Series
  • Wellesley Village Church, Contemplative Christmas »

This is an awareness raising concert for Better Angels.  It will include an introduction to Better Angels’ work and a concert with music and commentary reflecting on civic discourse. There will be an introduction by David Blankenhorn, President of “The Institute For American Values,” and music by Sage Snider and Andy Roth. 

This concert, to be held at Temple Beth Elohim, Wellesley (arrive 6:45), is free and open to the public. Click here RSVP. 

Better Angels is a nonprofit bipartisan citizens’ movement to reduce political polarization in the United States by bringing liberals and conservatives together to understand each other beyond stereotypes, forming red/blue community alliances, teaching practical skills for communicating across political differences, and making a strong public argument for depolarization. 

Performers:

Sage Snider is a fiddler, singer, dancer, and songwriter based in Nashville.

Andy Roth started as a folksinger in the late 60s and went on to a career as a musical comedy performer, with roles in the movie Grease and Broadway’s They’re Playing Our Song. Now a psychologist, Andy was disturbed by the anger surrounding the 2016 election and joined Better Angels.
