(Open) - Forum 2 | Conversations Across Divides: What experiences have you had in talking to those who may not agree with you — whether in school, with friends and family, or online? What has been helpful? What has been hard? Why do these conversations matter? (Opens Sept. 12) - Forum 3 | The Issues: What issues matter to you most? How do they connect to your life and the lives of those you care about? (Opens Sept. 17) - Forum 4 | Information and Disinformation: Where do you get your information about current events? How do you think these sources affect your understanding of our world? (Opens Sept. 19) - Forum 5 | Hope for the Future: What are you optimistic about? What might your generation do better than those that came before it? (Opens Sept. 24) If your students took part in our 2020 Civil Conversation Challenge, you’ll understand why we’re doing something similar now. As we wrote back then, the 12,595 comments that came in showed us how beautifully young people could wield both empathy and evidence to talk about tough topics, including racism and racial justice, voting and democracy, along with abortion, climate change, L.G.B.T.Q. rights and more. We are honored to invite this year’s high school students to do the same.
