  • Understanding Polarization 
    Political scientist Daniel Hopkins, author of “The Increasingly United States: How and Why American Political Behavior is Nationalized,” explored how polarization has developed over time, including its origins, the nature of it, and ways we might productively navigate it in an increasingly divided world.
  • Reflections on the Journey 
    This discussion featured Hahrie Han, a professor at Johns Hopkins and author of “Undivided: The Quest for Racial Solidarity in an American Church.” Dr Han reflected on heartset and asked "who do you need to be to bridge divides with others?" This session was not recorded.
