Tonight we’ll be watching two TED Talks.
Megan Phelps-Roper shares details of life inside America’s most controversial church and her decision to leave it. She shares her personal experience of extreme polarization, along with some sharp ways we can learn to successfully engage across ideological lines.
Theo E.J. Wilson tells the story of becoming Lucius25, white supremacist lurker, and the unexpected compassion and surprising perspective he found from engaging with people he disagrees with. He encourages us to let go of fear, embrace curiosity and have courageous conversations with people who think differently from us.
Join facilitator Marla Estes and learn how to “depolarize within.”
Every 3rd Wednesday, watch fascinating and insightful videos carefully selected to explore ways to depolarize and then engage in a facilitated discussion to help integrate new perspectives.
