Voices of the Future: Dr. Chloe Carmichael

Ardis Jackson talks to Dr. Chloe Carmichael author of Can I Say That? Why Free Speech Matter and How to Use It Fearlessly.

"Violence increases when dialogue ceases."

In a time when political polarization is tearing at the fabric of our communities, Voices of the Future dares to ask: what happens when we stop listening to each other?

Join us as we explore the rising tide of political intolerance—where Americans are now 5Ds deep into division:

• Defriending over disagreements
• Distancing in real life
• Dropping contact altogether
• Disinviting opposing voices
• Declining to date across the aisle

According to recent YouGov polls, liberals are up to 8 times more likely to endorse political violence over ideological differences. But what’s the cost of silencing dissent?

When we shut down conversation, we don’t just lose debate—we risk:

• Suppression of ideas
• Depression of the spirit
• Denial of truth

This week, we spotlight renowned psychologist Dr. Chloe Carmichael, who unpacks the emotional toll of political isolation and the urgent need for civil discourse.

Because if we want to be listened to—we must first learn to listen.
