Flying Pig Academy
Turns out building bridges across America’s divisions isn’t as hard (or as boring) as it seems—if you do the right thing in the right place.

Whether you’re an organization or a civic leader seeking to create a space for respectful disagreement or a citizen navigating your way through challenging relationships at home or at work (or you just don’t get “those people”), there’s a Flying Pig offering for you. Oink. Click on the “Join list” link to get on the list for launch announcements.
