Create a Conversation: Red States, Blue Cities

1. Have you felt the tension between America’s “red states” and “blue cities”?

2. Despite their ideological differences, Karl Dean and Bill Haslam have found ways to work together for the common good. How can you collaborate with those with whom you disagree?

3. Haslam and Dean both encouraged the audience to get involved in local government—whether running for office or partnering with local governments to advance good. Did any of these ideas spark interest in you?
