Most of us feel that politics has gotten louder, angrier, and more extreme over the past few years and we wonder why authoritarians' ideas are gaining traction. What pulls people toward extremist movements? And why do fear, identity, and “us vs. them” thinking seem to have such a strong grip right now? Join us as the team at Mindbridge shares the psychology behind today’s populist and extremist movements. When we understand what’s fueling radicalization, we’re better equipped to resist it and interrupt it. And here’s the hopeful part: these same psychological forces can also be used to build connection, resilience, and community. Understanding what’s happening beneath the surface will help you make positive change. See you there!
