Democracy in Action at the 2016 RNC

Becca Cooper (a.k.a. Wreck-It-Beck) and I travelled to Cleveland last week to interview everyday Americans who had gathered outside the Republican National Convention to express their political beliefs.

We spoke with homemakers, engineers, the founder of the Alt Right (think “kinder, gentler” white supremacy), presidential candidate Vermin Supreme, small business owners, large business owners, students, #BlackLivesMatter activists, #BlueLivesMatter supporters, a virulantly anti-Trump dog, and many others who flocked to The Cleve for the festivities.

Here are some voices from across the political spectrum of the most divided electorate in a century.
