Synopsis

The Perils of Polarization and How Self-Liberation Transforms Leadership
Through candid accounts of stereotypically vilified individuals—a jihadist, gang member, and white supremacist—as well as additional interviews with people who have been equally cruel and those who have experienced profound victimization, we learn how rigorous inner work can shift even deeply polarized social issues for the better. Piercing the often unconscious and destructive patterns that arise from a legacy of abuse gives rise to a clear leadership methodology, one that heals individuals across racial, political, social, and cultural divides.
These stories of reckoning with trauma, pain, and socialized identity reveal how inner change can affect societal reconciliation; how it in fact directly transforms community, workplace culture, and society as a whole.
