1. In part one of handling poor questions, I discuss one tool that is needed to handle any question.  Poor questions are common in everyday conversations and although, better questions can create better dialogue, sometimes it's how we handle them that can ultimately create it.  

We pretty much can recognise a poor question in a conversation, they ask them, we ask them.  It isn't necessarily something we are taught or actively try to improve.  So, how do we create dialogue when Yes/No questions are asked or scripted questions to people of colour are asked?  

I discuss two tools, the first one in part one and the second in part two that I have learned from reading books on journalism and verbal abuse.  Odd?  Yet, the tools from these two extreme forms of conversation lay a foundation in understanding creating good communication.  

I combine both tools and have modified these tools for everyday conversations.  I share with you the principles behind them so you can handle any poor questions that comes your way.  I also share with you my experience in using these tools in my daily life over the past 7 years.  

I’m T. Vyas, you can call me T became most people do.  I’m, as you’ve guessed, a person of colour who looks forward to chatting with you about some things identity, some things colour and ALL things Love!  Tune in Tuesdays for a new episode!  In the meantime, you can find me on Instagram @bareinmind.podcast
