The founder of the Log Cabin Republicans on building coalitions, spiritual evolution and the current state of the world, with Rich Tafel and Jeffrey Van Dyk - EP #17

There are few people I know who can effectively build bridges between the least likely among us, but my friend Rich Tafel is one of them. He’s a strategist working on the frontlines of social change in the areas of faith, politics, and business. We talk about how and why he founded the Log Cabin Republicans in the 90s (an effort to work inside the party to affect change and get AIDS funding passed by the national government). We talk about bridging the ever-widening chasm between the left and the right in an effort to end hyper-partisanship in American politics. More recently he helped run the nation’s first statewide social entrepreneur competition out of Detroit. He also shares his thoughts on social entrepreneurs combining the best of capitalism and the social sector towards sustainable systems change worldwide. We discuss the current state of the world in the frame of spiritual evolution and creating a new world. Rich also shares his personal story of how his spiritual guidance led him back to the role of ministering a church.
