This week, UnityNow's Toby Davis sits down with Connor Boyack, founder and president of the Utah-based Libertas Institute. Throughout this free-flowing conversation, Boyack shares his experience and perspective on working towards consensus-based, common ground solutions at his think tank, and how he's been able to make real political change. From small businesses' battles against regulation, to the fight for education reform, to challenging the death penalty, you'll learn about the issues Libertas deals with, and how the institute works to frame real solutions both sides can agree on. You'll learn about their innovative regulation sandbox, and why lawyers love it, and about the history of homeschooling. And speaking of learning, you'll also get to hear about how Connor got the idea for the Tuttle Twins, an educational children's book series on how society and government works, that has since been adapted into a cartoon. As Connor tells it, the impacts are far reaching, leading youngsters towards key understandings about economy and society, and leaving their parents stunned! Finally, Connor shares his thoughts about the current state of our politics. What does he think lies in store for the future of the Republican and Democratic parties? And is our division really as bad as it seems? This is one conversation you won’t want to miss!
