“Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me your ears!” So speaks
Shakespeare’s Marc Anthony upon the murder of Julius Caesar.
The role of public debate has changed very little over time. We
have more avenues now, and a wider public to address, but the
essential goal of persuading the audience to take a stand or
action remains the same. This week you will discuss a public
issue that is pertinent your own experience. It may be an issue
with schools in your community, a health issue affecting you or
someone you know, or an assessment of your political
leadership. Watch the video
Michael Sandal: The Lost Art of Democratic Debate
.
Identify a public issue in your community. Explain to the class
your own position on the issue keeping in mind that public
debate is a place for people who disagree try and find common
ground.
Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length.
Support your claims with examples from required material(s)
and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any
references. Respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts by
Day 7. Each response should be at least 125 words long.
Consider ways citizens can reclaim public deliberations.
