final socrates cafe event

wanted to make this a present thing on serendip. we can use google drive or facebook or whatever else, but i thought that we should also be  transparent for the rest of the class as well.

optional table use:

list of questions/concepts:

• safety

  • what does it mean to be safe? what does it mean to not be safe?
  • do people have to feel unsafe for someone to feel safe?

• freedom

• resistance

• citizenship
  • how does citizenship play into your life?
• silence
• dehumanization
• forgiveness
• stigma

things we still need to discuss:

• name (will we rename?)
  • middle ground of advertising: socrates café facilitated by members of the Arts of Resistance 360

• advertising (do we need to advertise as a separate event? how do we get into contact with ad group?)
• boundaries, how we will facilitate but not control
  • rb.richx: i think we should have a large version of some of the groundrules we use through bryn mawr space (using i statements, move up move up, etc)

schedule:

• intro of the course and the socrates cafe concept - MEERA
• community learning guidelines - RHETT
• second, a silence to center ourselves and ground us in this space - ABBY
• first question - SYLVIA (note: let's be cautious when breaking the silences that may occur - who knows what may come out of the tension!)
