Topics Include: 1) Review of false speech. 2) The negative and hateful consequences of slanderous speech. 3) Understanding that hateful speech is not about those who we blame, but because of our not getting what we want. So, the responsibility lies with us and not with others. 4) Learning to understand our emotions as we engage in hateful speech and learn restraint. Is our speech intended to bring people together or split them apart. 5) Noticing when our talk is overly self referential and what the motive may be.
