  • Join The Village Square and The James Madison Institute for a screening of the award-winning documentary “UNDIVIDE US.” We will be joined by special guest Ben Klutsey, one of the stars of the film, and its director, Kristi Kendall. The free screening will take place on Friday, September 6, 2024, at the Challenger Learning Center of Tallahassee IMAX Theater. Doors will open at 5:30 PM for a pre-screening reception and the film will begin at 6:00 PM, followed by a discussion and Q&A session. Join us for a film that will give you hope!
    America is at a crossroads where politicians, traditional media, and social media fan the flames of toxic partisanship that have led many Americans to question whether they can trust their fellow citizens. “UNDIVIDE US” stands as a beacon of hope and a call to action. Through the intimate lens of six focus groups across three American cities, the film explores the twisted landscape of toxic polarization, revealing how it drives us to fundamentally un-American places.
    Yet, within these divisions, the film uncovers the potential for healing conversation and the rediscovery of the value of local community, mutual respect, and democracy. Aiming to awaken the silenced majority that seeks solutions rather than strife, UNDIVIDE US is not just a documentary; it’s a timely and urgent plea to reclaim the nation’s soul through open discourse, civic engagement, and self-governance, in a world where only 20% of the populace guides the narrative.

    “Human, accessible, beautiful, and profound. If you’re ready to move past our toxic polarization—or you just want to feel better about your fellow Americans– ‘UNDIVIDE US’ will light your way,” says Liz Joyner, Founder and CEO of The Village Square.
