Learn how to productively talk through differences as Carlos Hernandez and Ellie Sears of the San Francisco Alliance of Braver Angels discuss a controversial political issue in a powerful new way. Gain important skills in having your own conversations whether around the dinner table or around the office. They’ll take issue topics from the audience so we’ll have a very lively demonstration of how the Braver Angels’ way works.
Braver Angels is a nationally recognized convener and facilitator of community-based conversations that engage and nurture positive discussion and understanding of controversial issues.
We’ll be at the Walnut Creek Public Library (a 20-minute walk from the Walnut Creek BART station) on Wednesday, April 12 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. Get there a little early to grab some appetizers so we can start on time.
