Every other week we will be hosting a nationwide Meetup.com event called “Subversive Discourse on Zoom.” The format of this event has not yet been determined, but there will be a designated moderator who loosely guides the discussion, creates space for everyone to contribute, and ensures everyone follows the R.E.S.P.E.C.T. guidelines below:
R = take RESPONSIBILITY for what you think, feel, and say without blaming others
E = use EMPATHETIC listening to understand where others are coming from
S = be SENSITIVE to differences in personality, communication styles, and belief stems
P = PONDER what you hear from others rather than rushing to respond
E = carefully EXAMINE your own assumptions, perceptions, and biases
C = keep CONFIDENTIALITY, especially when people share personal matters in their lives
T = TRUST one another to have a good faith discussion instead of a combative debate
More details coming in the weeks ahead.
