We can shape our future by VOTING and getting involved in our communities. This Friday, October 16, I’ll be in the Twin Cities for two community events: • The Rotary Club of Minneapolis • Civic Bridgers If you’re in the area, I’d love to connect. Register: www.civicbridgers.org/events

Grateful to @fulcrum_us for publishing this op-ed, “Immigration, Borders, and Belonging: Toward a More Honest Conversation.” I explore governments’ responsibilities to enforce laws and immigrants’ responsibilities to participate in the societies they choose to call home.

We are citizens. We are America. Some of us were born here. Some of us were born elsewhere and took the oath of citizenship. Our stories and backgrounds may differ. We share a responsibility: to care for one another and help this country live up to its promise. #IAmAmericaStory #BuildingBridges

Working with young people worldwide taught me that trust begins with listening - it grows when people feel heard and respected. We do not have to share the same beliefs, backgrounds, or worldview to care about one another. How can we connect with someone whose experiences are different from ours?

Should I send a copy to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un? My South Korean publisher just sent me the cover of the Korean edition of my book "Do More Good". A book about courage, service, and the power of ordinary people to make a difference shouldn't have borders.

Springfield, Missouri: the birthplace of Route 66 and a city with deep ties to evangelical Christianity. As I travel across America- across regions, backgrounds, and beliefs- people care deeply about their communities. #Rotary #Community #CivicEngagement #DoMoreGood #SpringfieldMO

I hope to visit as many communities as possible - to listen, learn, and explore how we can rebuild trust and strengthen our communities and our country. Where should Our Ripple Effect go next? I would love to hear your suggestions. #OurRippleEffect #BuildingBridges #Community #DoMoreGood

Raise your hand. Ask for help—in class, at work, and in life. After nerve damage from wrist surgery, friends helped me find specialists. Their support shaped my recovery. Research shows we underestimate how willing people are to help. Independence doesn’t mean doing everything alone.

Thank you, Principles First. One idea I keep coming back to: we don’t have to agree with one another to show up for each other or our communities. The question for each of us is: How do we move from concern to contribution? I hope this encourages a few more of us to take that next small step.

Honored to be part of Renewing the Dream at the National Press Club, remembering Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech and asking what his legacy requires of us today. How do we convert our concern into contribution? #RenewingTheDream #MLK #BuildingBridges

It took me three days to reach Mary Magdalene in Southern France. Perhaps that was the lesson: sometimes we begin a pilgrimage believing the destination will change us. Instead, the journey does. My latest for Patheos (see link in the comments)

What does it really mean to be an engaged citizen? Lasting change begins with ordinary people taking small actions. That's the idea behind Our Ripple Effect. What's one small action you've taken recently to strengthen your community? #ourrippleeffect www.OurRippleEffectNow.com

Most workplaces reward performance. Few reward decency. That may be the gap. What if we recognized people who show up for others, own mistakes, and lift the team when it matters most? 🎧 Listen: tjbennett.substack.com/p/d818f3ca-0... What does “decency” look like where you work?

Immigrants have shaped America at every stage. But success alone is not enough; trust is built through contribution, connection, and shared responsibility. Here are a few reflections based on conversations I’ve had with Americans from all walks of life. What would you add?

neilghoshauthor @neilghoshauthor.bsky.social · 17/03/2026

As anti-immigrant sentiment rises, I argue that success alone is not enough. Integration, civic responsibility, and humility matter just as much. A conversation worth having. 🔗 indiacurrents.com/are-indian-i... #Immigration #IndianAmericans #Citizenship
