IMO, most cultural deficiencies or 'disease' has to be worked from the inside-out. A healthy community is a strongly-coupled community with a sense of buy-in and accountability. It is formed through neighborhoods, churches, families, mentor-mentee relationships, etc.
It is in those fertile grounds that intentional education, mentorship and friendship can help cure the ills. When I hear that we are year-over-year distrusting our neighbors and citizens in deep-red or deep-blue states to do the right thing, we have to learn how to trust again and see each other.
It is going to be local. And it is going to be constructive, not destructive.
