		<description><![CDATA[The Red Blue Dictionary, in partnership with Allsides, is a collaborative effort with dozens of dialogue experts from the NCDD network, to create a site that gives definitions for a wide variety of words to help those all across the political spectrum better understand each other. The idea for the website stemmed from&#160;the &#8220;Red Blue Dialogue brainstorming session&#8221; at the 2012 NCDD conference in Seattle, where Joan Blades, Amanda Roman and Jacob Hess decided to further develop the idea.&#160;Living Room Conversations, in early 2016, continued [&#8230;] <a href="http://ncdd.org/rc/item/11634">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The article,&#160;Turning To Each Other, was written by Parisa Parsa and published July 2016 on Public Conversations Project blog. In the article, Parsa discusses the need to not be a neutral party within this society because it furthers the injustices of this world. Instead she offers the alternative of multi-partiality, to not remain neutral and both hold one&#8217;s own opinion while also being able to hold alternatives perspectives, even if they differ dramatically. The dialogue and deliberation field very often is a vehicle through which [&#8230;] <a href="http://ncdd.org/rc/item/11170">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

Dialogue has an incredible power to create a space for individuals to come together and work through difficult conversations that may have previously been felt by the participants as an insurmountable task. Public Conversations Project use of the Reflexive Structured Dialogue process creates an opportunity for a profound shift in conversations, as participants share their own personal stories, emotions [&#8230;] <a href="http://ncdd.org/rc/item/11124">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The article,&#160;Searching for Wise Questions,&#160;by Laura Chasin was&#160;published September 2011 and discusses how the way questions are framed can dramatically shape the answer. Written with the September 11, 2001 attacks in mind, the article offers opportunities to frame questions in a way that heal rather than divide. Below is an excerpt from the article and the full piece can be found on Public Conversations Project&#8217;s website here.
