Skills for Bridging the Divide – IN PERSON
September 9 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm CDT
Note: This event is to be attended in person.
In our current polarized political environment, many people avoid or dread political conversations with friends or family members whose politics differ from their own. They worry, rightly so, that any attempts at political discussions will devolve into arguments and acrimony, and result in hurt feelings or anger. Braver Angels Skills for Bridging the Divide Workshops teach skills for having respectful conversations that clarify differences, search for common ground, and affirm the importance of the relationship. They also give participants a safe environment to practice those skills.
Goals
- To understand what it takes to have constructive, non-polarizing conversations across political differences.
- To learn skills needed for these conversations.
- Be equipped to have these conversations with friends, family, and others in the community.
