How did we get so partisan? How could we get less partisan? And can independent-minded Americans help bridge the divide?
These are the questions underlying our exploration of deepening political and social polarization. To do so, we take a 360-degree tour, consulting experts in fields as diverse as neuroscience, media studies, and the social sciences, as well as politicians, mediators, comedians, screenwriters, and people from all walks of life dealing with partisanship in the media, at work and at home, and seemingly everywhere in between.
