Should you get vaccinated? Or should you not? The debate over vaccines has been a long-burning fire and it has never been more relevant with the rolling out of the Covid-19 vaccines.  Many of us are spending hours of our lives engaged in heated debate over whether or not to get vaccinated and a lot of these conversations are going really badly. How do we have effective and dignified conversations about such a charged topic? How do we actually change people's minds? How do we build bridges with people who have different beliefs about the vaccine than we do? Join myself (Jenny) and Jerome as we dig into some of the worst trends that we see in conversations about the vaccines and the best tools to use in order to have fruitful conversations about this controversial topic.
