We are restoring trust, respect and goodwill in American politics.
"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."
– MĂłnica 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

Red-Blue Balance at Work on Our Website
At Braver Angels, we require Red-Blue balance at all levels of leadership. In the summer of 2023 we formed a website committee tasked with redesigning our website; 4 Reds, 4 Blues and 2 Others. Over the next year, you'll see some changes as we roll out new webpages based on expertise from our team and feedback from our members.
The balance of Red, Blue and Other on our website team has been paramount to the success of this project. Through full, free and fearless discussions we revealed important insights, leading to a stronger end result.
