How to navigate challenging conversations this Thanksgiving

Season 2025 Episode 331 | 9m 47s

Millions are spending time with family and loved ones this Thanksgiving, but more time together can also mean more tension. The latest PBS News/NPR/Marist poll shows that Americans are finding it difficult to talk politics with each other. We hear from a few of our poll respondents and Amna Nawaz discusses how to navigate challenging conversations with advice columnist R. Eric Thomas.
