One Small Step: Courageous Conversations Across A Growing Divide

Join WFIT-FM to hear One Small Step: Courageous Conversations Across A Growing Divide from NPR and StoryCorp. Our nations is divided. One Small Step is an effort to connect people even if they disagree on politics. For 17 years StoryCorp has been bringing people together, reminding us of the inherent worth of every person and every story. In this hour-long radio special, host Elise Hu explores whether the simple but courageous acts of talking and listening can act as a potent countervailing force to the national discord. Featuring interviews with StoryCorps founder Dave Isay and prominent conservative and liberal guests, the hour reminds us that we have more in common than what divides us, with decency and respect that is essential to a functioning democracy. One Small Step: Courageous Conversations Across A Growing Divide airs on Labor Day, Monday, September 7 at 8am and again at 4pm on WFIT 89.5 FM.
