Katelyn Brown

I will watch or read the news each day this week with a specific focus on peace, justice, and/or sustainability issues and happenings.

I will spend 240 minutes watching a movie about a peace, justice, or sustainability issue I would like to know more about.

I will research peace and justice issues that affect my community and tell 2 friends and/or colleagues each day about what I learn.

I will observe local, national, and international news each day this week through a conflict resolution lens.

I will keep a journal of all my purchases this week and research their impact on conflicts and social justice.

I will "expand my boundary of caring" by offering to help 2 person(s) who are in need this week.

This week, I will practice intentionally listening to 2 people I disagree with or do not share common experience with.

This week, I will spend 60 minutes learning more about gaslighting, tone policing, and/or microaggressions so that I can avoid them in my own communication.

I will use the communication methods I read about this week to practice effective, compassionate, and nonviolent communication with someone I interact with regularly: my roommate, my parents, my co-work, my partner, my classmates, or my children.
