Finding common ground with Nisha Anand

In this episode Bryn talks with Nisha Anand, activist, bridge builder and CEO of the US NGO Dream Corps. Nisha shares her story of moving from punk-rock political disruptor to cross-party unifier, and her work with Van Jones passing the unique, bilaterally supported First Step Act (2018). Nisha advocates for the ruthless commitment to finding common ground with those on the opposite end of the political spectrum in order to progress key issues of the day, such as criminal justice reform and climate change.
