Civility Rules! Creating A Purposeful Practice Of Civility

Author: Shelby Scarbrough

While our civilization continues to advance, our capacity to live civilly―to appreciate our common humanity with empathy and humility―ironically dwindles daily.

Drawing on a foundational belief that civility is integral to a democratic society, author Shelby Scarbrough shares how we might work toward a more perfect union by building a personal practice of civility.

Civility is not an archaic concept of manners and politeness but rather a crucial component of a functioning democracy. Shelby shows us how, with conscientious practice and patience, we can each contribute to the preservation of our democracy, one interaction at a time.
