Another inauguration day where we pin the hopes and fears for our democracy on the occupant of the White House. The reality is that our democracy was birthed and can be revitalized in common places among everyday people having intentional conversations around important things.

Stay tuned for an audacious Drink and Think Experiment coming in 2025.

For 20 Years, a Denton Group Has Gathered to Drink and Think Together https://t.co/HVdDSKOZHX

“And I believe that our democracy, ultimately, is saved not at this top-down, national level. It's saved through people in local communities getting together, learning how to engage with one another reasonably.”

Nice Drink and Think write-up.

We're continuing our Drink and Think series on "What is beauty?" on June 15 with a discussion on classical music. We'll be joined by a couple of student chamber groups to help us both experience and reflect on this great art form. Join the conversation: https://t.co/Z7Tv9o3nz1

Let's pour some gin, ladle some warm punch, and engage with a local, yet internationally acclaimed Dickens scholar as to why the dickens, in 2023, we should read those old books. A proper occasion for a Drink and Think.
Let us know if you want in here: https://t.co/sn3Yj7Nr41

Curious what some of my urbanist friends think about this “land-use tax” concept? A taxing approach that rewards investment and use and discourages speculative land grabs that often lead to years of vacant land. via @NYTimes https://t.co/hecUOqPYFh
