My work, Untitled #8 from the Double Vision series is the basis of a paper written by the Reverend Doug Tanner from the Faith and Politics Institute in Washington DC. I shall be posting an excerpt of the paper when I recieve it. The mission of the Faith and Politics Insitute includes the following,
"The Faith & Politics Institute is an agent for change: from leadership that is externally focused to integrated leadership that incorporates spiritual practices and beliefs; from racial division and the exploitation of racial divides in electoral politics to racial reconciliation and dialogue; from bitter partisanship to civility and engagement. The Institute does more than create safe spaces for dialogue; it takes strategic steps to promote leadership that will have a positive impact on the tone and effectiveness of Congress, and through the Congress, the nation."
This statement and more is found on the website for the Faith and Politics Insitute of Washington, DC.
Their mission statement reads: "The Faith & Politics Institute advances reflective leadership among members of Congress and congressional staff to bridge the divides that arise in a thriving democracy."
