Civility Luncheon returns April 11 in Walla Walla

WALLA WALLA — The Walla Walla Valley Civility Project is hosting its next Civility Luncheon at noon on Saturday, April 11, at the China Buffet, 1618 Plaza Way, Walla Walla.

The topic will be the United States’ approach to war and dealing with foreign entities around the world. After a brief introduction, participants will break into groups of 2-4 to discuss the following questions. Afterwards, participants will have time at the end of lunch to share insights gleaned from their conversations.

Should the United States use assassinations and other means to influence/change/remove other nations’ leaders?

What checks and balances, if any, should be required for such actions?

What role should diplomacy play in such actions?

What role should the U.N. or similar organizations play in the United States’ foreign policy?

The last Civility Lunch on immigration policy and enforcement was well received and offered ample food for thought, demonstrating that we are still capable of finding common ground on divisive issues.

Please RSVP and plan to arrive early to purchase lunch before introductions begin at noon. The group’s website is wwcivilityproject.blogspot.com, which provides information on practicing civility.

Please RSVP to David Alford, Vice Chair at snoopy87@gmail.com.
