Opening Space for a Closing World

[Michael Herman]

colin, you spark for me with this last item about big wall set up in a
mall... fran peavey bought an open worldaround ticket and started in
japan.  she went out to a park bench and set out a sign (this was 1980)
that said "american willing to listen" and started having all kinds of
conversations with folks.  it grew into http://www.crabgrass.org and
some excellent resources there on "strategic questioning" that some
might use as good fodder for invitation writing.  thanks! m

I wish I had taken a photo.  Could we set something like this up in a public place like an airport, railway station or shopping mall, perhaps in association with a charity, and publish the results?  Do you remember in China they used to have a wall where people posted articles?  The theme could be something like 'Making a better world'.
