I want to begin conversations between Americans again.
@AmericansProj will interview people from all corners of the country.

We'll end by giving them the opportunity to pick a location in America that they'd like to know more about and to share questions.
And that will be the next location we report on.

If anyone is interested in participating and connecting for a conversation, please let me know in my DMs or tweeting @AmericansProj.
Thanks!
