A Gentle Answer: Our 'Secret Weapon' in an Age of Us Against Them Free Audiobook Download by Scott Sauls
A Gentle Answer is an audiobook that discusses the history of the gun culture in America, and how we got to where we are today. One of the main themes discussed in the audiobook is how our society has created a sense of "us against them" through fear-mongering and hate speech. The author also explores why it is so hard to break away from these attitudes, as well as some possible solutions for uniting people instead of dividing them.
Scott Sauls has the ability to see and decipher the core issues of our society. He's not a politician but he's been called one because of his insight into how we need to set up systems that embrace one another rather than divide us based on race, class, gender, etc. in order to move forward.
'A Gentle Answer: Our 'Secret Weapon' in an Age of Us Against Them' is a book written by Scott Sauls. It is a novel that is set in present day Atlanta, Georgia. Its protagonist, Nick Smeby, works at an internet advertising company named Start Something. When the company starts experiencing business problems, he gets hired by a competitor as an online media consultant to help them turn around their marketing in order to create more revenue.
Our collective humanity is in peril. America's current political climate is a direct reflection of our collective apathy and disregard for each others' well-being, we are now defined by our differences. The book asserts that the best way to respond to this shift in culture is to develop a sense of shared humanity and speak out against those who would divide us.
"I think that it's really important to make the entire idea seem more human," said Sauls. "When I have written a section of an article, I think that I've done something badly if you can't imagine walking into a room in your own house and talking to someone who was being honest."
