COMMUNICATING ACROSS THE POLITICAL DIVIDE
Sunday, June 9 1:00-3:30 pm Mt Holly Friends Meetinghouse, Mt Holly NJ
Workshop description
Braver Angels has boldly stepped into this divide through offering our Skills for Bridging the Divide Workshop. This workshop teaches crucial capabilities for having respectful conversations that clarify differences, search for common ground, and affirm the primary importance of our relationships. It also provides participants a safe environment to practice those skills, followed by interactive and enlightening opportunities to debrief the practice sessions in ways that further our learning. You will learn about the perspectives, feelings, and experiences of people from a different political viewpoint. You will have a sense of satisfaction about how you conveyed your own perspective, feelings, and experiences. And, you discover some common ground.
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.
Reservations are free but seating is limited.
