In Baltimore\, Brandon Scott\, an idealistic young leader with an ambitious plan to stop chronic violence\, is elected mayor. Throughout his first year in office\, we follow him as he fights powerful political forces to save lives in his city and reveal a pathway toward healing for the nation. \nThe Body Politic is a co-production with ITVS and a co-presentation with BPM (Black Public Media). \nCo-presented by the Unitarian Universalist Congregation at Montclair\, NCJW of Essex\, The League of Women Voters of the Montclair Area\, the League of Women Voters of Livingston\, The League of Women Voters of Teaneck\, the Montclair NAACP\, Dumpling Diplomacy\, and Moms Demand Action.
