Have you lost the ability to have meaningful conversations with neighbors, friends or family because of seemingly insurmountable differences in political opinions? Feeling isolated in an echo chamber of people who think just like you? Braver Angels of Franklin County, Vermont may be able to help. Join us to learn how to speak and listen with civility on some of the most contentious issues of the day. We will host a free two and a half hour zoom workshop that will help you develop skills for bridging political divide on September 22. We cannot promise that you will reconnect with your cantankerous old Uncle, but we can offer you insights on how to start, carry on and get out of conversations with people who see the world differently than you do. This event is free. All are welcome.
