Civil combines my entrepreneurial spirit with my love-hate relationship for politics. Currently, the political system pushes lifelong commitments to one dimensional political camps that do not truly represent the diversity of thought and beliefs across the US. I believe there is more nuance to be found in our political engagement. Through Civil, I want to equip young people with the skills and education needed to create a more open discursive political world.
