About this Event

Note: Free registration can be accessed using Promo Code "Braver". You will not need physical or virtual tickets in order to attend this event.

The red/blue divide makes it hard for Americans of all races to reason together and find common ground on important policy issues related to race. Braver Angels is uniquely positioned to help address this problem.

In this *FREE* workshop you will learn skills for having more productive conversations about contentious policy issues related to race, such as affirmative action, policing, removing statues, and reparations.

The workshop also helps conservatives and liberals understand core values and principles of those who differ from them on public policy issues connected to race in America. The workshop is for those who:

Want to learn to communicate more effectively about race and public policy with people who differ from them politically
Believe in the equal worth and dignity of persons of all races
Are prepared to listen, learn, and practice skills rather than criticize, instruct, or try to enlighten participants with different views

There are many kinds of workshops dealing with race. Note that Braver Angels focuses on divisions over public policy. This workshop is not an in-depth discussion of race relations and racial identity in America.

*Tickets are Free, Donations Help Use promo code BRAVER during registration to get a free ticket. Donations beyond the free ticket support Braver Angels, 501(c)3.
