Zoom Themed Discussion Guides

Dedication: I dedicate this site to my favorite website PropWatch.org -- a nonprofit, non-partisan source aiming to educate the public on the subtle influences of propaganda from both the left and the right, from liberals and conservatives, from Democrats and Republicans, and every thing in between. I hope that our schools will include one day in their curricula such non-partisans sources so that all our youngsters will be less vulnerable to the tactics of propaganda that may threaten the very foundation of our Democracy.

Buffet: With Covid a noose over our past and a shadow over both our present and future, buffet restaurants may have become only a dead choice, but the concept of buffet is alive and well in my zoom-meeting discussion guides. Each guide has far more content than can be absorbable in a single, typically hour long meeting. So it remains the choice of the leader or the group as a whole to select which of the many questions and quotations are digestable in a single session -- or perhaps you will choose to use a single guide for more than one session. No need to feel pressured to gulp down every item in a single meeting.
