  • Returning Civility to Political Discourse

    National polling in recent years has consistently reported that 2/3rds of


    those polled feel that there’s a major problem with civility in our

    nation, while 75% agree that it’s certainly worse than it was just a few

    years ago. Since 2004, PEACE TALKS RADIO has been tracking the

    conversation about the declining civility in our political discourse. This

    time on the program we present another panel of guests with their takes on

    it with Suzanne Kryder hosting the conversations.
