Plot summary

Follow four Americans as they travel the country in an effort to bridge political division. From Susan Bro, reluctantly called to activism after losing daughter Heather Heyer in Charlottesville, to Milwaukeean Steven Olikara, founder of the Millennial Action Project, they all seek to mend division and find the human bond that crosses the aisles of our partisan nation. This film is a balm before Election Day, reminding us that even within division, connection is possible.

Can't see the forest for the trees

I'm not gonna vote for this documentary because I am sitting on 49// fence and I am looking 'inside' and what I see is SAD and a scary déjà vu.So, let's start: When a president proclaimed: 'You are either with us or against us'.And started wars on 'false pretenses'.And no one (in media) question that statement...And if someone dare to do so is crucified by (social)media and DoJ (i.e. Dixie Chicks, journalists jailed for not revealing their source and a myriad of whistleblowers).When free speech become the acceptable speech, ONLY; and you get 'cancel', called names, stamped, if you drift from it.When the press and news media transform itself from the Fourth Estate or fourth power into nothing more that stenographs (mouth piece) and echo chambers of this or that special interest, of this or that political agenda.When dialogue (two or more sides work together toward common understanding) vanished.When debate (two sides oppose each other and attempt to prove each other wrong) turned dismissive and violent.And all this divide, goes unhealed for decades (i.e. Nixon).Well, it locks (in my view) that democracy (American style) is on the verge of collapse, maybe it needs some profound reforms (not some cosmetic touch-ups).Good Luck.

Enlightening & Inspirational!

The only way we will reunite as Americans is to acknowledge that racism definitely exists. An inspiring documentary that encourages real dialogue about race and privilege in America.
