This reminds me of a conversation I had with a colleague back in 2022. We were co-facilitating a class of young professionals, and on the way back we were talking about the bitter polarization of Americans.

She said that we need an event that forces all together.

I asked, what about COVID? Wasn't that such an event?

She replied it would have been but we had a divider in charge.
