DC Jacobin Ground Rules

DC Jacobin Ground Rules

 

  1. Listen actively to what others are saying.
  2. Respect the people chosen to facilitate the discussion.
  3. Share the air — let other people who haven’t spoken contribute before you speak a second or third time.
  4. Don’t make assumptions about people’s motives and ask clarifying questions if someone says something that you find confusing.
  5. Try to understand the arguments being made in an article first before listing what is missing­ and keep in mind that a single article can’t say everything.
