One Person Can Make a Difference: A Conversation with David Bender

We’re about to enter probably one of the toughest years in our country’s history. A year that could quite honestly end the American experiment. But America has been through crises before and people pulled us through. So the question is, what are YOU going to do to fight for what’s right in a time when so much is wrong? I’ve asked my friend, and lifelong political activist, David Bender to join us today because he’s lived and worked through so many of America’s ups and downs and he’s fired up to do it again. This is a conversation worth hearing.
