Dear Friends of FAIR,
As the 2024 election approaches, public discourse is becoming more heated than ever. In these critical times, it is essential that we remain rooted in our common humanity, rejecting divisive rhetoric and seeking to foster understanding across all perspectives.
To promote thoughtful and unifying conversation, FAIR is calling for submissions for a special Substack series on the 2024 election. We are seeking both pre- and post-election pieces that explore how we can navigate this election cycle without compromising our shared values of fairness, understanding, and humanity.
Submissions can cover a wide range of topics, including:
How to engage in constructive conversations across political divides
Personal reflections on the election process
Ways to encourage civil discourse in your community
Thoughts on the post-election climate and its impact on social cohesion
We encourage you to share your unique perspectives and insights to help shape a narrative that promotes unity, not division.
Please send your submissions to submissions@fairforall.org according to the FAIR Substack submission guidelines. We look forward to amplifying your voice and standing together for fairness and tolerance in this pivotal moment.
Warmly,
The Team at FAIR

Nice idea and it would be encouraging. However, you will need to revisit the premise of “shared values of fairness”. I question that as a starting point. We don’t have shared values. 1. Wealth and who pays taxes. One side incessantly clamors for more tax on the wealthy and in businesses. Almost half the country pays no income tax. 2. Individual liberty AND responsibility. Half the country has no interest in personal responsibility. 3. Small government vs centralized,large government. 4. Free market based economy vs centrally planned economy.
These are irreconcilable differences that happen because of differing values.
