governerd 

A Governerd is a student of US government and democracy with a passion for non-partisan, fact-based learning. Governerds are critical thinkers who engage in open-minded and respectful discussion. They actively listen to understand, are open to diverse views, and seek deeper knowledge about legislative, executive, and judicial matters as well as the Constitution.

Governerds are looking for truth and peace in a political climate that is often fraught with lies and divisive rhetoric. A governerd is committed to facts, not feelings. Governerds are always respectful and kind as they seek to find answers to hard questions. They practice recognizing bias and how to come together to find common ground. They care deeply for fellow citizens, are dedicated to helping others, and collectively turn their pennies into miracles.

Governerds also share an appreciation of whale facts, bald eagles, poorly curated clothing subscription boxes, the Great Lakes, and procrastination chickens.

Governerds originated as students of America's Government Teacher, Sharon McMahon
1) "In Sharon McMahon's latest Government for Grownups lecture about landmark Supreme Court Cases, her fellow Governerds engaged in respectful discussion in order to listen, learn, and better understand the Court's rulings."
2) "As a Governerd, I'm committed to facts, not feelings."
3) "Any Governerd will tell you: Facts do not require your approval."
