NWS Presents "How Political Division Threatens Our Democracy"

NWS Presents "How Political Division Threatens Our Democracy"

Why are we so divided?

Why do Americans living in the city and the country experience politics as a battle between “us” and “them”?

In Rural Versus Urban: The Growing Divide That Threatens Democracy, co-authors Suzanne Mettler and Trevor Brown write that America’s deep political division now pervades every state in our country.
