Dr. Gina M. Masullo joins LWV IL for a virtual program to discuss research-backed approaches for navigating digital spaces--and offline spaces--with people who disagree with you politically. This talk will provide tangible takeaways for you to apply in your own life to be more open to other viewpoints without compromising your values.
