☕ Coffee & Conversation: "Everyday Expectations" | Thu @ 11:00 AM ET (ON/CAN)

This Week's Topic: "Labels Part 3 - Everyday Expectations"

From the comfort of your own space, you are warmly invited into dialogue with others and to discussing this week's topic while exploring some deeper questions along the way.

New to Coffee & Conversation? Watch our video
or Listen to our CBC Radio Interview

Questions to help with the discussion:

• What’s the most ridiculous rumor or misconception you’ve heard about your country or state? And if it’s not true, how did you set the record straight?
• Have you ever caught yourself stereotyping another culture, and how did you correct your thinking?
• Are there any assumptions or expectations you have about yourself or others that you’ve come to recognize as unfair or unrealistic?
• What kinds of blind spots have you come across about yourself? How do you go about illuminating "blind spots" in your life?
• Do you think it’s possible to completely eliminate stereotypes, or do you believe they’ll always exist to some degree? Why or why not?

In this safe, inclusive, casual, and accepting environment, dialogue is encouraged over debate as each person has opportunity to share from their own diverse perspectives and experiences.

Folks in this group enjoy going beyond small talk, reflecting both inward and outward, helping build pathways for more peace and understanding in the world... and your voice matters!

No particular set of beliefs (or creed) is required to be a part of this community-building activity. Diverse perspectives are welcome.

Whether to discover yourself amidst a community on a common journey or to find meaning among new friends, there is room at the table for you.
