Arendt’s words serve to remind us that the spaces we have in common—both physical space and the space of public discourse—are spaces marked by difference. When we acknowledge that each of us has a right to participate in this space within certain agreed-upon civic parameters, rather than seeking to exclude by invoking notions of privilege or ownership, we show an understanding of public space that makes it democratic space. - Diana Nemiroff
