Wendy Kaminer's 2002 book can serve as the basis for a discussion group -- or many of the exercises in this guide could conceivably be used on their own.
Exercises are meant to elicit thoughts and feelings of participants, and look at the rights and liberties they expect and are willing to extend to others.

Information on Study Circles -- what they are, how to run one, where they're succeeding around the country.
"What is a study circle?
A study circle is a group of 8-12 people from different backgrounds and viewpoints who meet several times to talk about an issue. In a study circle, everyone has an equal voice, and people try to understand each other's views. They do not have to agree with each other. The idea is to share concerns and look for ways to make things better. A facilitator helps the group focus on different views and makes sure the discussion goes well."
