A Purple Conversation
BHS Social Studies Teacher Mike Misner recently had his students screen the film Purple. Designed to build greater empathy and recognition in the face of deepening U.S. divides the short film PURPLE models a rare conversation that uplifts and inspires even while going toward the heat of passionate political differences. In a time of immense division, PURPLE tells everyday Americans' story with opposing viewpoints confronting their disagreements head-on and discovering the humanity and concerns that lie behind each other’s positions.
