Uncivil Society With Here & Now's Robin Young

American political discourse has become so dysfunctional it is hard to imagine reaching a national consensus on almost anything. Longstanding historical fault lines over income inequality, racial division, gender roles, and sexual norms coupled with starkly different senses of economic opportunity in rural and urban America have fueled a polarized political landscape. Julian E. Zelizer ("Fault Lines: A History of the United States Since 1974"), Michael Tomasky ("If We Can Keep It: How the Republic Collapsed and How it Might Be Saved") and Robin Young, co-host of Here & Now, will discuss how we got here and if there is a way back.
