Our next meeting:
Tuesday, February 2, 2010
7 pm at the Potlatch Library
Our guest speaker is John Lafer, a Pullman resident who will soon to be joining the Potlatch community. John is a strong advocate for liberty and constitutional government and has been very involved with grass roots campaigning in the recent past. Since I met John nearly a year ago, I have been struck by his calm approach and his ability to engage people in thoughtful discussions. He recently gave a power point presentation to a liberty group in Moscow/Pullman and has graciously agreed to come speak to us also.
We've all had the experience of wanting to inform someone about an issue and running head-on into that person's partisan barriers. In our polarized society, it is often hard to get past the 'talking points' that both sides toss out. I anticipate learning some practical techniques for more effective communication with those who don't necessarily share my views.
Come on down and join us...and bring a friend!
And mark February 23 on your calendar for the next meeting. ( Topic or speaker to be announced)
