CivicCon hosts Richard Harwood‘s “Enough. Time to Build” campaign tonight from 6 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. in the Wesley Abbey building of First United Methodist Church of Pensacola, 2 E. Wright Street. Harwood discusses what average citizens can do to get involved in their communities.
“As I travel all across country, what I hear people saying, regardless of who they vote for, that our country’s on the wrong track, that they’ve had enough of the division, enough of the hatred, enough of the bigotry, enough of the acrimony,” Harwood shared. “People are, as you are exhausted by all this, and we’re not making the progress that we need.”
He added, “The change we need is going to start in our local communities where we can actually come together, restore our faith in ourselves and in one another that we can get things done together and where we can start to build and see some progress. And I think, as you know, all change in American history always started in our local communities. It didn’t start in Washington DC or even our state capitals. And I think we need to renew that spirit today.”
