Homeschooled and surrounded by MAGA culture, supporting Donald Trump felt like the natural path.In this conversation, Addy shares what it was like growing up inside the movement, why she proudly voted for Trump in 2020, and the experiences that ultimately led her to question everything she believed.As she began listening to perspectives outside her own, she came to a painful realization: MAGA had taken away her empathy for other people. Today, she speaks publicly in hopes that others questioning the movement know they are not alone, and that change is possible.To watch this conversation, visit below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYJK8KhiDW0&t=1s
