Two days ago, I cheerfully celebrated the arrival of spring weather. My bad. Last night it snowed in Madison! So Im returning to politics for a while. As awful as politics are in this country, we can help change things, which aint true of the weather! Here are a few endorsement and reviews for Healing the Heart of Democracy. If you buy the book at the link below—and recommend it to your friends—I can buy more firewood! Warm (literally) thanks! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [Palmer] bravely takes on the current political climate, and this book provides therapy for the American body politic. His insights are heart-deep: America gains by living with tension and differences… Hopes hardly cheap, but history is made up of what Palmer calls a million invisible acts of courage and the incremental gains that came with them. This beautifully written book deserves a wide audience that will benefit from discussing it. —A Starred Review in Publishers Weekly In this inspiring book, I find encouragement that all of us, citizens and elected officials alike, can learn to bridge the divides that keep us from genuinely respecting one another. By sharing his own lifes struggles, Palmer reveals the common struggles we all endure. He provides us with a way forward, a way forward with hope. —U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin A master work by a master, a clear and uplifting resource that keeps shining light in all the dark places. Palmer is that rare, deep seer who is at home in the streets, a teacher by example who has the courage to stand openly and honestly in the public square. —Mark Nepo, The Book of Awakening A courageous work that is honest and true, human and humble, glitteringly intelligent and unabashedly hopeful. Palmer gives us constructive language, historical context and a practical vision for how we as individuals and communities can get to the real heart of the matter. —Carrie Newcomer, activist and singer-songwriter, A Permeable Life “Healing the Heart of Democracy is a hopeful book that lifts up and hallows the heart as a source of inner sight. Inspired by…Abraham Lincoln, Alexis de Tocqueville, Rosa Parks, and others, the author sends us on our way rejoicing with the hope he has planted in our minds and souls. —Spirituality & Practice
