At a time when the nation seems more polarized than ever, can Americans learn to disagree civilly? To explore that question, APA partnered with the National Institute for Civil Discourse for “A National Conversation on Civility” on Sept. 26 to talk about the breakdown of civility and why rebuilding it is essential for the nation’s future.
