Continuing the Conversation with Dialogue2Action

By Pamme Boutselis

​Some of the most powerful conversations happen within Global Citizens Circle's Circle events. But they don't end there. The thought-provoking revelations and ideas are brought forth into new arenas by all who attend. The problem was, though, you had to be there, to enter into the initial conversation and take away these valuable thoughts to keep them going.

But when Covid entered the picture, the conversation widened via virtual Circles. The Circles were recorded and shared in the aftermath on YouTube, allowing greater access to all. 

Now, many of these Circles have been distilled into bite-sized pieces, opening access even more via GCC's Dialogue2Action series. Each edition features a video synopsis and discussion guide of these incredible events. This is perfect for broadening individual and group understanding – and furthering the conversation even more. 
 
During these troubling and often divisive times, Dialogue2Action may be just what you need to better understand complicated issues, find talking points to open discussion with others, and create solutions in places where you may have felt like you had none.

We invite you to watch this 20-minute video, “Movements for Change: Stories of Challenge and Success” featuring:
​

• Legendary activist Dolores Huerta, co-founder,  United Farm Workers Association and the Dolores Huerta Foundation
• Lauren Hogg, co-founder, March for Our Lives
• Ramla Sahid, founder, Partnership for the Advancement of New Americans
• Jada Hebra, moderator and SVP/Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer,  Southern New Hampshire University 

​

​And then, review the Movements for Change discussion guide to see how you, too, can continue this conversation. 
 
Be sure to check out all of the featured discussions in Dialogue2Action. ​
