As a lead up to Let’s
Talk About Civility (February 23, 2020) community conversation at the
Library Galleria, we have joined with the Sacramento Alliance of Better
Angels for a series of programs.
Better Angels is a national
organization of bipartisan citizens formed following the 2016 election at a
time when many people became increasingly disturbed by the nature of our
political discourse. The purpose of the program is to create civil, thoughtful
conversations about the current political climate.
Join us for Better Angels Debate: Should We Tax the Rich to Address Income
Equality?
A Better Angels
debate is structured conversation where a group of people speak, listen and
think together to grapple with a difficult topic. Modified parliamentary
procedures are used to create an atmosphere of decorum and respect. Everyone is
encouraged to express their views. Unlike a traditional debate format,
participants express views without the goal of winning an argument.
Please register to attend the program.
