Jennifer Lawless

We are more politically divided than we have ever been in over 30 years. JENNIFER LAWLESS, chair of the Politics Department at the University of Virginia, discusses the national political scene and “affective polarization”.  If you are a Rhode Island political junkie, you may recall that in 2006 she ran for the Democratic nomination for  RI’s 2nd Congressional District. She lost but continues her research and analysis of politics.
