Why The Clustering Of Like-Minded America Is Tearing UsApart

Rosh Hashanah begins at sundown on the second Wednesday of September. Accordingly, our next meeting will be on Wednesday, September 15. The dislocation should be minimal because each quarter there is always one 5-week gap between meetings and September 15th (vs. September 8th) will simply mean that the 5-week gap this quarter will occur before our September meeting rather than after it. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Why The Clustering Of Like-Minded America Is Tearing UsApart

Originally proposed 7/17/2010 - 11 views before being transplanted here.

For our next reading, I suggest "The Big Sort: Why the Clustering of
Like-Minded America Is Tearing Us Apart" by Bill Bishop, published by
Houghton Mifflin (2008). For those fretting about polarized America, Bill
Bishop presents a clear and sophisticated explanation of what has happened
and it is not just the politicians who are responsible for it. The focus is
on the period 1965-2008 and there is much information that is quite new to
me in understanding the red-state/blue-state divide.
