Anchors and swimmers is based on the premise that when people connect through their vulnerability, micro change happens.
No matter how oppositional our beliefs may be, when we “go underneath” we discover our innate humanness and interconnectedness. How we hold our differences may be more important than being right if we want to build vibrant communities and create peace in our world.
