West and George have been collaborating in several different capacities over the past 13 years. Their partnership initiated when they co-taught a class at Princeton, and has evolved into touring the country. The two men speak in front of diverse audiences to model the very real possibility of having a level-headed and respectful conversation with someone who is vastly different from themselves. Despite having opposing views on many topics ranging from politics to religion and philosophy, the pair has often noted that they value the opportunities to learn from each other each and every time they speak.
