Unsettled
Season 4 Coming Soon
On Season 4 of Unsettled, we’ll dive into “The Great Divide.”
According to the American Psychological Association, the majority of adults in America say that societal division is a significant source of stress in their lives. We’ll find out how we feel it on a personal level in our communities and families.
The divide between rich and poor continues to expand. We’ll explore how the growing wealth gap is shaping our future.
These days we don’t just disagree with each other, we’re living in separate realities — we'll find out how we got here.
We’ll go to church, and find out where political influence and power intersects with faith.
Then we’ll meet people who are building bridges and bringing people together in powerful and creative ways.
