Description
Inspired by the notion that food allows the soul to grow, The People’s Supper—a two-year initiative powered by three non-profits that joined forces to combat partisanship in the wake of the November 2016 election—brings together people who differ (politically, religiously, racially, culturally, and generationally) for a meaningful conversation over dinner. Its methodology? Ask people about their stories, not their politics. RPF funding will support large-scale suppers for conservative and liberal participants in locations across the country and fund a media project designed to capture and share the diverse stories of The People’s Supper participants.
