90.7 WFME pushes Dare to Listen

Dare to Listen is 90.7 WMFE’s community campaign designed to encourage active listening and civil discourse in the Central Florida community, with 90.7 WMFE acting as the conduit. Their mission statement: To listen is risky. Because when we truly listen, we just might change our minds. To listen is risky. But not to listen is riskier. They believe it’s time for Central Floridians to consider, think, explore and question. To appreciate our differences, and find our commonalities. To reach across the fence, build the bridge, open our minds. To talk. And most of all, to listen. WMFE has posed four challenges to listeners and non-listeners: 1. Listen to 90.7 WMFE. Make a conscious effort to really listen and have constructive community conversations about tough topics. 2. Take the dare. Choose your dare tagline and sign up to receive Dare to Listen curated content in order to follow through on that dare. Visit wmfe.org/DareToListen. 3. Share. Tell your friends and family about your dare to encourage them to do the same. 4. Live your dare. Let it be a perpetual reminder to always and in all ways truly listen intently and openly. Let your example of active listening encourage and inspire others.
