You’ve gathered around the dinner table when someone mentions a political point. In the blink of an eye, the conversation quickly devolves into fighting, hurt feelings, and someone storming off angrily. Dinner is ruined. Again.

Disagreement doesn’t have to ruin family dinner. As the nation charges toward the 2024 election, join us as two governors from opposite sides of the aisle discuss the importance of “disagreeing better.” This Engage at the Bush Center event presented by NexPoint will show citizens how passionate and civil discourse is not only possible, but necessary – as long as it’s built atop a foundation of respect and understanding.
