SUMMARY:Better Arguments: Free Speech
DESCRIPTION:Date: November\, 14\, 2023Time: 6:30 p.m.Location: Folsom Tavern\, 164 Water St.\, Exeter\, NHCost: FREE thanks to Service CU \nAmerican civic life doesn’t need fewer arguments; it needs better arguments. \nAt this free discussion\, presented by Service CU\, AIM invites members of the community to have a better argument. Using tools from the Better Arguments Project\, community members are invited to join us for an evening of conversation. \nHere\, we will learn techniques to have difficult conversations and to talk and listen to others who have differing viewpoints than ours. These techniques will be used to discuss the idea of Free Speech. \nWe invite all to attend and learn how to have a Better Argument. Community members will be asked to adhere to the five principles of a better argument: \n\nTake winning off the table\,\nPrioritize relationships\,\nPay attention to context\,\nEmbrace vulnerability\, and\nMake room for transformation.\n\nOnsite to help facilitate discussion will be: Sarah Jaworski\, Program Manager American Independence Center; Julia Lantern\, Assistant Director Exeter Public Library; and Laura Simoes\, Executive Director of Nackey S Loeb School of Communication. \nThe Better Arguments Project is a national civic initiative created to help bridge divides – not by papering over those divides but by helping people have Better Arguments. In this sense\, arguments don’t have to drive us apart. Better Arguments can bring us together. \nAbout American Independence Center\nLocated in Exeter\, NH\, the American Independence Center features a rare collection of historic artifacts that shed light on the Revolutionary War. Examples of popular items in our exhibits include a dragoon pistol\, brown bess musket\, and 18th century powder horn. Many of our programs offer insight into civic duties\, civic engagement and civic responsibility\, while we also feature a variety of things to do in NH\, such as camps for kids\, festivals\, summer festival\, reenactments\, and homeschool programs. Perfect for a day trip or weekend trips\, we believe in inclusivity and inclusive history and the spirit behind the phrase\, ‘we the people’.
