Republican Meghan McCain and Democrat Michael Ian Black road-tripped across America with a unified purpose: to see if two people with radically different political beliefs could find common ground.
The Washington, D.C. Jewish Community Center hosted a book party in their honor. Due to a recent movie role offer, Black was not able to attend, so Meghan took over the reins.
Background:
Meghan McCain, daughter of John McCain, writes for the Daily Beast and is the author of Dirty Sexy Politics. She lives in New York City. Michael Ian Black is a stand-up comedian and has starred in many television series and movies. He lives in Connecticut with his wife and their two kids.
In America, You Sexy Bitch: A Love Letter to Freedom, they chronicle their interactions with one another and with the many interesting folks who populate the United States. On the way, they dispel the illusion of an irreconcilably polarized America. Their narratives reveal how their biased expectations evolved into genuine respect for people who they initially thought were quite opposite from themselves.
