SAD Standing Against Divisions app for iPhone and iPad

SAD - Standing Against Division
Here’s whats really SAD: Division is triggered by intolerance, the spreading of polarizing allegations and the perception that all institutions are failing and untrustworthy.

But counteracting polarization is not a lost cause. American identity is grounded in a shared aspiration to guarantee the rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The abundance of common and unifying beliefs, practices, rituals, institutions, and processes will always inspire greater tolerance.

Believing that citizens should always engage in civil discourse and governments should work in the best interests of the country as a whole, the SAD app promotes critical thinking and highlights our shared American values by introducing you to respected and established organizations committed to provide the insights, tools and support you need to find common grounds as you explore divisive, controversial issues, from gun control and illegal immigration to death penalty and climate change.

If you think that the next generation will overcome today’s divisions, think again. It starts from you. And it starts today.
