On a journey down the relatively prosperous East Coast of the United States, Grayson Perry takes the cultural temperature of liberal America. Traveling from the affluent holiday playground of Martha’s Vineyard to the progressive neighborhoods of Brooklyn, he explores a community grappling with political anxiety and a changing national identity. Instead of focusing purely on political headlines, Grayson asks a deeper question: how much has the growing cultural and economic distance between coastal liberals and the rest of the nation fueled the country's stark political divide? By exploring sensitive issues around social class, economic opportunity, and access to higher education, he paints a vivid portrait of how modern liberals view their own country, and how the rest of the nation views them.
