They couldn’t be more different. Or, more surprisingly similar.
Both are political trailblazers known for speaking their minds—and for passionately speaking out for ordinary Americans. In this powerful conversation, two of the most respected and outspoken women in American politics examine our increasingly polarized country and the future of the Republican and Democratic parties.
This very honest look at both sides of the partisan divide finds new hope in the values and ideals that can bring us together as Americans.
The event is free with a cash donation or a donation of nonperishable food items supporting the SGA Feed-A-Raider program.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m. The event begins at 7:30 p.m. Limited seating available.
Sponsorship opportunities for the event are available. Contact the NWF State College Foundation at (850) 729-5357 or foundation@nwfsc.edu for more information.
