Changing Our Consciousness

The Depth Perception Party is dedicated to the discovery of creative solutions to political conflict through the ability to imagine the emotional experience of the other, and the support of leaders who demonstrate this capacity.

The Depth Perception Party is a component project of Changing Our Consciousness, an organization dedicated to social change through emotional literacy, defined as the ability to read and respond appropriately to the emotional communications of others.

Our Mission: The Depth Perception Party is a group of people who share a desire to catalyze social change by working to understand the worldviews of both political parties, locate short and long term horizons, support creative leadership, and imagine new solutions to longstanding political conflict.

When we view the world through just one eye, we cannot see depth. Using our right AND left eyes, we see in a more complex way; we focus on the horizon and move toward it. When representatives of the Right pit themselves against those of the Left, the result is bitterness and stalemate, or compromises that blur rather than sharpen our vision. Whatever perspective we favor, we must learn to understand how the opposite side sees, and find intersection points that open paths to forward movement.
