Project Elements

Create as many small conversations as possible on the identity, formation, and cultural values of white US Americans in advance of 2045

Substack online journal

Watch this space for weekly posts. It’s not a commentary on current events, but a space for ongoing reflections—short musings, emerging project ideas, insights from our podcast conversations, and the themes we’re hearing and learning as we engage communities. This journal captures the living, evolving nature of the work, offering readers a real-time window into how imagination, story, and practice are taking shape. It serves as both a companion to the larger 2045 vision and an accessible entry point for anyone wanting to follow along with the journey week by week.

Project 2045 Podcast

The pod is a core offering—our long-form space for exploring what it means to prepare, imagine, and practice courage and hope toward a more ethnically diverse America. Designed to hear from practitioners and thinkers about the issues and necessities of culture change in advance of the 2045 demographic change. The podcast will supply learning for cohort programs and reflections that speak back into the program.

The Podcast will serve as:

public
longitudinal
qualitative
original research

Skill Building cohort

The 6 Conversations Skill Building cohort forms the practical backbone of Project 2045—simple practices that help people talk across race, culture, politics, and lived experience with honesty rather than performance or debate. Each cohort opens a distinct doorway into deeper understanding: sharing personal stories, listening for someone else’s experience, naming values, exploring fears, imagining the future, and identifying shared commitments. They offer a grounded, relational way for people to practice the kind of dialogue our changing country requires.
