The importance of l anguage in political messaging cannot be overstated. In politics\, every w ord counts. A successful campaign can hinge on the artful construction of messages that resonate with voters. Political language is more than slogan s\; it can bridge the gap between political ideals and public perception. Note the regrettably misunderstood term “Defund the police.”
\nIt be hooves all of us to be conscious of the language we’re using and how it wi ll be construed\, when talking to others or writing Letters to the Editor. This program will help us fine tune our political messaging to make it mo st effective.
\nOur 3 speakers are with a non-profit called Words Th at W!N dedicated to teaching and promoting strategic messaging to win hear ts\, minds\, and votes. WTW is an all-volunteer group\, passionate about g ood messaging.
