Said@Duke: Better Angels' John Wood Jr. on Political Discord

Part of the Said@Duke: 2019-2020 Series
Regardless of what happens in Washington, there can be a sea change in how the American people choose to treat each other that can set the stage for a more responsible and heartfelt brand of politics and social engagement.

John Wood Jr., Better Angels director of media development, spoke Tuesday night as part of the Kenan Institue for Ethics' Arete Initiative talk on “Love Your Enemies? Depolarization in the Age of Donald Trump.”  Better Angels helps Americans understand each other beyond stereotypes, form community alliances and find common humanity across partisan divides. The group holds workshops and offers online resources, among other tools.
