Breaking the Toxic Polarization Cycle: Strategies for Being an In-Group Moderate
April 29 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Attend onsite or online
Suggested donation: $15
Join us for an interactive session exploring the vital role of faith leaders as in-group moderates. It’s not just about finding the courage to speak up against behaviors that contradict core values and religious beliefs within our own groups; it’s about recognizing how being an in-group moderate is integral to our role as faith leaders in breaking the cycle of toxic polarization. Through exercises, text analysis, and discussions, you’ll gain practical strategies for overcoming obstacles, navigating challenges and fears, and building support networks.
