United as Neighbors of Newberg and Dundee and the George Fox University Civility Project invite you to join a conversation about how we should respond to political violence. This issue is even more urgent since the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and the range of ways people have responded to that event.
At Community Conversations, you’ll get a chance to better understand the views of people who disagree with you, and at the same time help them understand your views and the reasons you hold them.
A good conversation can help everyone get a fuller, clearer picture of why people think the way they do, avoid misunderstanding, and heal polarized groups and communities. Come practice this on Wednesday, Oct. 1, from 7 to 8:30 p.m. in Canyon Commons.
For more information about the Civility Project and its events, check out the website or contact Ron Mock at civility@georgefox.edu.
