Braver Angels 'Red/Blue' workshop

Braver Angels is a national organization with a Boise chapter, working to reduce political polarization by generating patriotic-empathy, the idea that our love for our country is shown by our concern for our fellow citizens. On April 14, they will hold a Red/Blue Workshop, open to all students, staff and faculty.

In a Red/Blue workshop, a group of Republican-leaning citizens (“Reds”) and a group of Democratic-leaning citizens (“Blues”) gather together for a half-day of structured conversations. Independents are also welcome to attend, but for the purposes of the workshop they identify as leaning either Red or Blue, or attend as observers.

Two local Boise moderators, trained by Braver Angels, will lead the workshop, ensuring that ground rules are followed and that everyone is treated respectfully.
