Alf's The Dialogue

In April of 2018, SCC Supervisor Dave Cortese’s office hosted a firearms and safety summit where over 300 community members came together to talk about – guns. He enlisted ALF’s help in facilitating a participatory dialogue. In the liberal bubble of Northern California, the right conditions for dialogue brought together a surprisingly diverse cross section of gun enthusiasts, NRA supporters, as well as gun reform advocates and antigun activists. The goal? For attendees to leave understanding – and perhaps even building community – with those who had opposing views.
