America is an argument: Washington state talks through political division

Rebuilding Democracy UPDATE

Americans can't agree about the results of the presidential election. Armed insurrectionists briefly took over the U.S. Capital on January 6. Americans are living in separate, diametrically opposed, information ecosystems. Is our democracy threatened?

In this statewide special we hear from Washington state residents, Eric Liu (founder of Citizen's University); Washington Secretary of State Kim Wyman, the only Republican elected statewide official on the West Coast; and Washington State University sociologist Jennifer Sherman whose focus is cultural norms in rural areas.

Ross Reynolds is the moderator.
