Fantastic fact-reporting
I was extremely pleased that they did not record a microcosm of information; they incorporated the thoughts and stories of opposing views and humanized them in a way that makes it easier to listen to why they think and feel how they do.
100% recommend for any leftist that wants to understand what draws people to the right/alt-right.
Sequel?
Are you planning to make sequel?
