00:08 David, in all of your years of peace and conflict

00:22 study and teaching, do you think unity is possible?

00:27 Unique.

00:31 Right now, we only have two choices, us or them.

00:34 There's clearly this current social crisis in our society.

00:38 Economic, political, social, it's dividing people

00:41 and people are getting hurt.

00:42 It's extremely dangerous, in many ways,

00:44 growing more dangerous.

00:55 We've been taught that we're much more

00:57 divided than we are united.

01:00 I've always believed that what brings us together

01:03 is stronger than what divides us.

01:04 This is what democracy looks like.

01:07 This is what democracy looks like.

01:10 Well, America has always been a very raucous country.

01:14 I mean, we're an immigrant nation,

01:16 so we've always been a cauldron.

01:19 That is America.

01:23 Art itself is one of the greatest unifiers

01:27 on our planet.

01:28 We thought about the act of people

01:30 signing their message of unity next to each other,

01:33 one after the next, thousands of people

01:35 signing this message on the station wagon.

01:38 By having people sign their names next to each other,

01:41 it is a act of unity to stand next to someone

01:45 of a different political party, of a different race,

01:48 of a different religion.

01:50 This was just two musicians with a car, a guitar,

01:53 and their voices, believing that there was something better

01:56 out in the world, and that we could somehow pull that out

01:59 by showing the ultimate vulnerability of going in a car

02:02 and asking people to sign it, and going from state

02:06 to state with no grand plan other than to bring people

02:10 together in a very divided year.

02:13 ♪ 'Cause I feel like I've waited all my life ♪

02:18 ♪ Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on ♪

02:21 ♪ I feel like I have waited all my life ♪

02:26 ♪ Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on ♪

02:31 This is not the greatest thing you've ever seen.

02:32 It's awesome.
