The first of the 2018–2019 Green Bay Area Philosophers’ Cafe
gatherings will be held at St. Brendan’s Inn on Wednesday, September
19, 7 to 8:30. Ryan Martin, UW-Green Bay professor of human development and
psychology, will lead us in a discussion, “In Defense of Anger.” Anger
gets a bad rap sometimes. People often see it as inherently
problematic and most conversations about anger are about how not
to feel it. Sure it can get us into trouble, damage
relationships, and even be scary at times, but anger is a healthy and
powerful force in our lives. We'll talk about why we get mad, and
how to listen to that anger and how to use it ways that are positive
and prosocial.
