IN PERSON: In a world of misinformation and inequality, feelings of mistrust and cynicism naturally arise. They can burden our hearts, impact our relationships and disrupt society's unity. What we seek is hope — a beacon encouraging us to embrace the goodness around us. The central questions of this course are: Can we discover hope in tough times? And, if so, how and where? Over nine engaging sessions, we’ll explore answers for ourselves and our community. Topics include the wisdom of hope, fostering trust, the spirit of activism and our collective destiny. Join in vibrant discussions about best-selling author and psychologist Jamil Zaki’s book as he shares research and a practical guide filled with suggestions for overcoming cynicism. Expect laughter and fresh insights. Optional preparation will take about one to three hours weekly. | Facilitated discussion.
