Libertarian persuasion usually takes place in conversation.
Not speeches or seminars, books or white papers, important though they are.
Libertarian understanding usually grows out of talking and listening.
So start or join a libertarian conversation. One-on-one. Or with a small group.
In person. On Skype. Or on the telephone.
Conversation engages us. Draws us out. Brings into play more of our intelligence and attention.
Which makes it ideal for teaching and learning. For grasping and embracing libertarianism.
