A new American Public Television documentary – Divided We Fall: Listening With Curiosity – explores how two groups of strangers equally divided over President Donald Trump were able to come together and discuss some of the most divisive and pressing social issues bedeviling America today. Filmed over two weekends, the documentary features Gen Xers and Millennials who were brought together to discuss what it means to be an American, the divides that prevent unity and how we, as citizens, can bridge those gaps. Through the participants’ discussions around issues of gun violence, immigration and racism, the film shows what happens when people stop sitting in judgment and start listening to one another with curiosity.

The film will premiere on Rocky Mountain PBS on April 14th, and on the PBS World Channel on April 17th. It is available to stream now at dividedwefalltv.org. After viewing the film, join the co-producers and two cast members for a conversation about the importance of the film in our society today, the lessons learned from creating the film, and their perspectives on ways that we can help spread the call-to-action for more Americans to listen with curiosity. We encourage everyone to complete this 3-minute questionnaire before attending our event.
