PBS NewsHour Primetime Special “America at a Crossroads with Judy Woodruff” Explores America’s Political Divisions

PBS NewsHour’s special, “America at a Crossroads with Judy Woodruff,” will air on PBS on Tuesday, December 19th at 9:00 p.m. ET (check local listings) and on NewsHour’s social platforms, including YouTube, X, and Facebook.

At a time of heightened partisanship, declining trust in institutions, increased political violence, and rapid social change, PBS NewsHour’s senior correspondent Judy Woodruff, will explore the forces driving Americans apart, and asks people from all walks of life and all political persuasions what might be done to reverse these worrying trends. The one-hour special will also spend time looking at solutions — engaging academics and civic leaders to talk about strategies that seem to be working, and to find out what more can be done to reconnect Americans across partisan division and build stronger communities.
