Gilpin Political Cafe

Meet with other locals who are interested in The Political Cafe, an informal discussion of a political topics. All points-of-view are welcome. Gilpin Poli Stu is going to veer from the Political Cafe trend a bit and stay away from discussions on political minutia, such as candidate or issue back-and-forth. Instead, we aim to take a larger view and discuss the merits of various political theories and attitudes, looking for common principles. We will test theories by fire, share information and expand our perspectives to the benefit of all. If you have questions about political theory or government, or have an idea or theory you'd like to test with others, this is the place! In addition to philosophy and debate, we will have additional meetups to talk about how to organize our theories and aims into effective political action at the local level.
What the group becomes is entirely dependent on who shows up. Come and bring your unique viewpoint or questions!
We offer snacks and light beverages - feel free to bring something else if you like.
