DESCRIPTION:Martin Luther King Jr. observed that, “You have no influence over people 
 who can sense your underlying contempt.” Yet how can we be free of 
 contempt when we’re certain the beliefs and actions of another group or 
 person are harmful and “wrong”? In this workshop, drawing on the 
 principles of Nonviolent Communication, we will begin to explore how we can 
 “speak truth to power” in a way that others can hear us---even\nwhen 
 they may have opposing views we find inaccurate, harmful, and challenging. 
 Well be looking at: Red state/Blue state; gay marriage on the ballot; 
 Issues "that divide us".\n\nWith guest Dian Killian, PhD, a CNVC Certified 
 Trainer, founder and director of Brooklyn NVC and the Facilitate Change 
 program and co-author of Connecting across Differences: A Guide to 
 Compassionate, Nonviolent Communication and Urban Empathy: True Life 
 Adventures of Compassion on the Streets of New York. A lifelong political 
 activist and writer, Dian brings insights, inquiry, and interest to these 
 current HOT topics.\n\n\n
