Our next guest on Border Walkers is uniquely qualified to give us strategies for speaking peace into our culture of disinformation, polarization, and alignment around party lines. Marilyn McEntyre has spent her career caring for words and teaching others to do the same. A poet and the author of 15 books (including Caring for Words in a Culture of Lies and Speaking Peace in a Climate of Conflict), Marilyn has embodied the border walking approach we are seeking to learn on this podcast, first as a long timer professor of American literature and then the professor of medical humanities at UC Davis and the UC Berkeley-UCSF Joint Medical Program. 

Join us on Friday, February 19th at 6:30pm Mountain Time, live on Teams, as we host an interactive community conversation with Marilyn McEntyre where she will teaches us strategies for using our words to bring peace into our culture of climate. 

Pre-register for the conversation by visiting http://borderwalkers.eventbrite.ca. If you can’t make it on Friday, our the conversation will be recorded and you will be can find it wherever you are listening now.
