In this 90-minute interactive Braver Angels session, participants will explore the sources of today's polarization and learn skills for respectful dialogue and finding common ground. 2026-10-02T14:48:15Z Event http://inthecityforgoodmn.org/community-events/year-of-respect/Depolarizing%20Ourselves Polarization is fueled by how we talk about those on the other side of an issue. Too often, we ridicule, dismiss, or stereotype our fellow citizens. When Braver Angels addresses “polarization,” we are not referring to healthy disagreements over issues or philosophy. We are addressing how we regard and talk about large groups of people -- people who happen to be on the other side of the political aisle. 2026-10-02T15:42:25Z Event http://inthecityforgoodmn.org/community-events/year-of-respect/Skills%20for%20Disagreeing%20Better%20-%20Rochester In this polarized time, we lack basic understanding of why people on the other political side hold their beliefs. We don’t see them as they see themselves–their core values and central concerns–but instead as we choose to see them. We are tempted to regard our own side as principled and the other side as self-interested. 2026-10-02T15:04:17Z Event http://inthecityforgoodmn.org/community-events/year-of-respect/Managing%20Difficult%20Conversations%20with%20Constituents A Braver Politics workshop that lowers the stress of difficult conversations with constituents across divides and helps you find common ground.
