Join with others who have varied views to discuss current issues of political interest in the national, state-wide, or local environment. We provide a description of each meeting's topic in advance, often with links to reference material from multiple points of view. We discuss these in the "Braver Angels Way" to understand each other better, and often find common ground.

The Braver Angels Way
● We state our views freely and fully, without fear.
● We treat people who disagree with us with honesty, dignity and respect.
● We welcome opportunities to engage those with whom we disagree.
● We believe all of us have blind spots and none of us are not worth talking to.
● We seek to disagree accurately, avoiding exaggeration and stereotypes.
● We look for common ground where it exists and, if possible, find ways to work together.
● We believe that, in disagreements, both sides share and learn.
● In Braver Angels, neither side is teaching the other or giving feedback on how to think or say things differently.
