A limited podcast series by Making Peace Visible
If you’re convinced that working with the ‘other side’ is a lost cause, hear us out. We’re taking a clear-eyed look at what polarization is actually costing Americans — all of us — and where past efforts to address it have fallen short. We’re talking to experts from across the political spectrum about how to find shared solutions to shared problems: in journalism, education, religion, government, technology, and more.
Making Peace Visible is part of The Democracy Group, a network of podcasts that examines what’s broken in our democracy and how we can work together to fix it.
