Thinking Points: Communicating our American Values and Vision, by George Lakoff

Facilitated by Wallace Ford

As we journey through this time of searching and discoveries about the human vocation, seeking to articulate the foundational values of care for creation, discovering and re-discovering our voices, George Lakoff and the Rockridge Institute provide us with key insights and guidance. Their particular focus on how language functions and the realities we create with our language forms, guides us in our work, reminding us that we have responsibility not only for “what we say about creation-care” but also how we say it.

The discussion will utilize Lakoff’s new book: Thinking Points: Communicating our American Values and Vision. The book is available in local books stores and from email sellers.

Excerpts from the first three chapters are available as .pdf files.
Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3
