AIFF ~ FREE Screening + Discussion “Divided We Fall”

AIFF presents the powerful film on bridging divides, “Divided We Fall: Unity Without Tragedy.”

New Voice Strategies proved on camera that, despite divisions that are exploited and amplified on social media and cable news by pundits and politicians, Americans are hungry for connection and unity.

They want the core of our democratic experiment –“We the People” to succeed. New Voice Strategies filmed strangers from opposite sides of our political divides – Gen Xers from Massachusetts and millennials from Chicago – gathered together for a weekend. They wrestled with what it means to be an American … our divides and our connections.

After the 1-hour film, experience a Discussion with Marla Estes, of Bridging Builders, an organization addressing the growing social & political polarization in our country.
Venue: AIFF Film Center, 389 E. Main, Ashland
