Truth Brigade
Have you ever tried to talk with someone who sees the world very differently—and discovered that simply giving them more facts did not work?
Facts matter, but spouting them rarely changes minds. Productive conversations begin when we model the critical thinking we hope to encourage in others: questioning our own assumptions, listening actively, and asking thoughtful questions that reduce defensiveness rather than heighten it.
Join us on Thursday, October 8, 7 – 9pm CDT as we explore how to talk across political and social divides—not to win an argument or force agreement, but to encourage reflection. When people feel heard and are given the space to examine their own assumptions, ask their own questions, and follow their own reasoning, meaningful persuasion becomes possible.
Let’s get ready for No Kings: Vote Early!
Join Indivisible Barrington’s October Town Hall to make signs, get inspired, and prepare for Saturday’s event. We’ll have all the supplies. Just bring yourself!
This is a nonpartisan event. We won’t discuss specific candidates.
