Over the past decade, talking politics has become increasingly difficult. One might have to go back decades, perhaps to the Vietnam War, or perhaps even further, to the Civil War, to find moments when talking about politics and policy was more difficult than it is in 2026. Bill Woodson will share why dialogue has become a personal passion for him, and what he has learned, both from some spectacular successes as well as from equally noteworthy failures when attempting to have a conversation when strong differences of opinion are involved.
