Better Angels

Better Angels is a national citizens’ movement to reduce political polarization in the United States by bringing liberals and conservatives together to understand each other beyond stereotypes, forming red/blue community alliances, teaching practical skills for communicating across political differences, and making a strong public argument for depolarization.

Primarily through workshops, Better Angels furthers the work of depolarization nationwide. They also bring together leading scholars, writers, and ordinary citizens from across the political spectrum to model the “Better Angels Way” of public debate. Learn more about Better Angels in our profile, “Angels, Not Enemies” where we interview one of their skill facilitators, Mike McGillicuddy from Chicago, IL.
