As news and social media amplify a narrative of an America on the brink of civil war, politicians in Washington, DC stir conflict: red against blue, rich against poor, urban against rural, race against race, and man against woman. They cast us as enemies locked in battle, usurping power and posing as our saviors.
UNDIVIDE US challenges the idea that citizens who disagree are not capable of civil conversation and demonstrates the truth that, even in our differences, the American experiment is still alive and well.
It exposes the power players in Washington DC as the true disruptors of peace, driving our legitimate differences to the brink of disaster. Hear from experts about the roots of this toxic polarization and learn how to counteract it in our local communities and lives.
MEDIA RESOURCES
“These screens in our homes and pockets put forth this story about America that we’re on the edge of civil war, that we can’t get along, And the danger is that we might start to believe that.”
Tony Woodlief“The aftermath of these focus groups was quite surprising to us. After we wrapped, they were still engaged with one another and wanted to continue the conversations. It was almost as though they had a cathartic experience.”
Ben Klutsey“Part of the solution to the problems with toxic politics is to put politics in its place.”
