​

Calling In by Loretta J. Ross explores how we can address harm and disagreement through compassion instead of shame. Ross, a longtime activist and educator, introduces the concept of “calling in” as an alternative to “calling out,” encouraging dialogue and accountability without exclusion.

 

Through powerful stories and thoughtful insights, Ross shows how we can stay true to our values while still treating others with empathy. Calling In offers practical tools for navigating conflict, especially in today’s polarized climate, and invites readers to build bridges rather than walls.
