Reuniting America

2026-02-08 16:00:00 2026-02-08 17:45:00 America/New_York Braver Angels - In-person "Braver Angels: Reuniting America." Olney Library -

Sunday, February 08
4:00pm - 5:45pm

"Braver Angels: Reuniting America."

Join Braver Angels for a viewing of the 50-minute documentary "Braver Angels: Reuniting America."

The documentary is 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.
