An uncertain economy, changing demographics and shifting social norms all contribute to a growing, almost palpable anxiety that has gripped much of America. Persistent anxiety about difference — or the lack of difference — acts as a powerful force that re-inscribes social separation and even isolation for individuals and their communities. Perhaps something more fundamental is driving this disquiet. Perhaps we are uneasy with an uncertain world that might not just threaten our way of life, but also our sense of who we are.
