Mission to Bring Back Civility to Politics

How do you talk across the political divide with someone who might exclude you, fear you, or even believe you shouldn’t exist?

Kai shares the groundbreaking ways she manages the tension between advocating and understanding, then April joins Mónica to explore contrasting views on gender and sexuality from the left and the right, and together they face the quagmire at the heart of so many of our toughest clashes: How do you love people well while holding strong to your convictions?
