Do you ever feel like the average working class American has no voice in today's polarized political climate? Are you sick and tired, as I am, of those in big government, big tech and big media keeping the average working class American silent while giving those who wish to keep us divided the loudest voices? Why settle for being a prisoner of polarization? What if there were an organization that were to give the average working class American a chance to sound their voice at the podium? Let's talk about the "We The Peoples' Forum", part of the Working Peoples' Project within Braver Angels...

Let me introduce David Lapp

David Lapp is Co-Founder of Braver Angels and director of the working people's project. David leads the Working People’s Project, an initiative within Braver Angels by a multiracial group of working class Americans of diverse backgrounds to take on polarization, build trust, and empower ordinary Americans to participate as citizen leaders in American political life. David spent several years interviewing working-class Ohioans about their life experiences and families before helping to start Braver Angels. David lives with his wife Amber and five children in South Lebanon, Ohio, the home of the first-ever Braver Angels workshop in December 2016.
