Hello Club!
Join us this Thursday at 6pm Mountain Time to discuss the topic of political violence. This is our first hybrid meeting in a long time! Feel free to join us in person or online (details below).
- What is political violence?
- Has political violence been on the rise in the US?
- Can political violence be attributed to specific ideologies?
- Is political violence more of a problem on the left or the right?
- Can political violence be morally and/or tactically justified?
- Can political violence bring about positive change?
- What can we do to minimize (the negative effects of) political violence?
- And more!
