Description

What if political conversations...> Fostered UNITY rather than division?> Helped BUILD relationships rather than destroy them?> Left people feeling HOPEFUL rather than demoralized?Coffeehouses have a global history of being centers for revolutionary discourse and cultural exchange. In homage to this tradition, Civil Conversations is a community event designed to help people engage in productive civic dialogue that pushes beyond party lines. ________________ The theme of our January event is "Gender."Attendees will engage around prompts that explore nuances related to gender identity--the biological, social, and personal. ________________Civil Conversations are not about debate, but about listening. The goal of this event is not to change others' views. The goal is to broaden your OWN perspective of the world by learning how others in your community see it.Prompts and dialogue structures will be thoughtfully facilitated to foster a deeper curiosity about—and understanding of—others' core sociopolitical experiences, concerns, hopes, and values. However, in the process, you may indeed find that minds are changed—perhaps even your own.
