Question by Question
These days, as bombs fall literally and figuratively, we may find ourselves hearing unexpected, startling comments from a colleague, friend, or family member.
How can we remain in dialogue, in relationship?
The National Museum of African American History and Culture advises a “Questioning Frame of Mind.”
Seek clarity: Tell me more about __?
Offer an alternative perspective: Have you ever considered __?
Speak your truth: I don’t see it the way you do. I see it as __.
Find common ground: We don’t agree on __ but we can agree on __.
Give yourself the time and space you need: Could we revisit the conversation about __tomorrow?
Set boundaries: Please do not say __ again to me or around me.
