Key Points: The authors main thesis is that progressive liberalism is moving too fast for conservative sensibilities. The article goes on to explain (with examples) how this has happened and how it contributed to this years presidential election results. If we want to unite and move forward as a country, the author stresses the importance of truly understanding each other.                  

Audience: Educators, Voters, Everyone

Relevance: This article articulates the importance of understanding the other. In this case the other is the conservative population of our country. I urge everyone to read this as it may help you better understand your neighbor.

  1. Great post Kyle! For me this article resonated being that I was born and raised in a ultra conservative city in western Washington, and can see how Trump won the election. Politically, I am a liberal and I have keep this under wraps given were I grow up. I do have a understanding in how conservatives think and view the world. I believe the article's main thesis is correct in that progressive liberalism is moving too fast for conservative sensibilities. However, I do not agree with it.
