Gun violence, mental health, intractable politics: when the solutions seem out of reach, sometimes our default is despair. We have to fight that impulse before we can suit up for the next, more important fight to come. I hope this conversation and community can be a shelter from the storm. Stop pacing outside; come in and join us. Live event at Local 16 restaurant and bar in Washington, DC.

Segment 1: poetry in the storm

Host: Jared Rizzi [Twitter: @JaredRizzi]
