Agenda

Civil Dialogue(R) is a unique format that provides facilitated dialogues on “hot topics.” The goal of Civil Dialogue is to foster civil communication and productive dialogue, not necessarily to achieve agreement or consensus. This event's topic will be "the effectiveness of protest on college campuses."

Reception

In this transformative session, educator, activist and scholar Loretta Ross introduces the powerful practice of “Calling In” — a compassionate alternative to canceling that emphasizes accountability, empathy, and connection.
