"We’ve got to figure out a way out of this mess, and that’s what Braver Angels offers. We all need tools in our toolbox for good conversations. That’s why I’m here. It’s time for something different."

– Erica M. (Blue), California

"As a conservative voter, I came to Braver Angels broken-hearted and deeply disillusioned by the hurtful division I was personally experiencing. I have found in Braver Angels a safe 'political home' for authentic, civil and curious discussions."

– Rita C. (Red), Arkansas

"As a defense professional, I believe our political division is our greatest threat. Our enemies use it against us, and it keeps us from solving the challenges our nation faces today. Braver Angels restores trust amongst our citizens and protects our security."

– Tedman G. (Red), Overseas

"I'm addicted to the nuance, the layered perspectives, the fresh ways into otherwise draining issues. And how even within my politically divided family, we're finding more and more to learn."

– Mónica G. (Blue), Washington

"Braver Angels allows me to speak my mind without fear that my perspective will be mischaracterized or demonized."

– Travis T. (Red), New Hampshire

When all voices are heard, civic renewal grows.

Citizenship is the common thread that connects all Americans. We are a nation bound not by race or religion, but by the shared values of freedom, liberty, and equality. When Reds, Blues and Others work together, the entire country benefits. Our movement is the guiding force that's helping Americans work together again.

The Braver Angels Way
We state our views freely and fully, without fear. 
We treat people who disagree with us with honesty, dignity and respect.
We welcome opportunities to engage those with whom we disagree.
We believe all of us have blind spots and none of us are not worth talking to. 
We seek to disagree accurately, avoiding exaggeration and stereotypes. 
We look for common ground where it exists and, if possible, find ways to work together.
We believe that, in disagreements, both sides share and learn. 
In Braver Angels, neither side is teaching the other or giving feedback on how to think or say things differently.
