Community Discussion on Polarization
Truth Has a Voice Foundation sponsored a free showing of the documentary, Stars and Strife, on April 27 at 7:00 pm at the BV Community Center. The film is both cautionary and optimistic, as it follows the rise of anger and hate swelling in American culture, along with the loss of a political center in politics. The documentary was followed by a facilitated, focused community discussion lead by Anderson Horne of Colorado Mountain College.
The Social Dilemma at the SteamPlant
On October 21, 2021, Truth Has a Voice Foundation, along with co-sponsors Colorado Mountain College and Central Colorado Humanists, held a showing of the documentary The Social Dilemma at the Salida SteamPlant Theater. This powerful film was the focal point for a panel discussion following the viewing of the film.
