(Doors open at 6:30 for social time)
We’ll be watching and discussing the documentary "Braver Angels: Reuniting America."
Braver Angels: Reuniting America is a 50-minute documentary about 8 Democratic-leaning voters and 7 Republican-leaning voters moving through a Braver Angels signature Red/Blue workshop in Waynesville, Ohio, from initial skepticism to more profound understanding and empathy. You’ll get an inside look at how a Democratic voter went from threatening to cut off relationships with Trump voters to becoming dear friends with one—and how a Republican voter moved from disdaining progressives to taking co-leadership with one in a movement that now spans the country.
It was directed by four-time Emmy award-winner Jim Brown, and produced by musician Peter Yarrow.
(Please note that Braver Angels was known as Better Angels until April 2020.)
