Author Richard Harwood Says Americans Ready for Change

Richard C. Harwood, author and civic innovator, acknowledged the disconcerting state of American politics and public life during a lecture at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics, but he urged his audience to work for improvement with optimism that change can occur.

Author of Hope Unraveled: The People’s Retreat and Our Way Back and founder of the Harwood Institute for Public Innovation, Harrwood said Americans want change and will work hard if they know their labors can make a difference. Americans gave money, time and effort following Hurricane Katrina, for example, in an overwhelming response that exceeded even Sept. 11 and the tsunami in Asia. Change comes through individual involvement; giving to charity is not enough, he said.

New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson met with about 20 Saint Anselm College humanities students on March 20, 2006, and discussed negotiating prisoner releases with Saddam Hussein and Fidel Castro, improving schools in New Mexico and ending the war in Iraq.

“Castro liked to keep everyone off balance,” said Richardson, a likely candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination. “He liked to negotiate with you when you were very tired.”

He told of being awoken at 2 a.m. to meet with Castro while in Cuba to negotiate new immigration rules and the release of political prisoners. By 5 a.m., they had eaten dinner and come to terms, he said.
