A fun and easy way to depolarize your community
We’re almost in the final month of the Rise For America campaign, and we have nearly 1,200 actions committed! It’s not too late to get involved — and there’s a fun and easy way to jump in and make a difference.
“We The People” is all Americans
Politics is seen as the realm of lawyers and experts, not truckers and nurses. We’re working to change that.
Can Jesus Cross Our Divides?
This belief that love can transcend our differences is a belief that yet binds many Christians and non-Christians alike. We need love if we are to heal America. And we need the teachings and exemplars of love to come forth from our heritage to show us the way to mend.
The Sum of Our Parts
By combining the ideas of very different people—and organizations—to discover not only what each can contribute but what collectively we can create, we might finally accept that together, we’re greater than the sum of our parts.

Braver Angels Documentary
Braver Angels: Reuniting America is a 50-minute documentary 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.
Please note that Braver Angels was known as Better Angels until April 2020.
