Civic Discourse
Civic discourse is an incredibly important part of community. In order to be an integral part of a community, one must be able to express their ideas verbally, without fear of stepping on another's toes, or embarrassment. Once the art of sharing your opinions through public speaking is mastered, confidence is gained, and there is no telling where one might go. However, in order to be a part of a community, one must be able to listen just as well as they are able to speak.
