NowThis posted a video recently of Black Lives Matter (BLM) protesters who showed up at the "Mother of all Rallies," a rally in support of Donald Trump.

While there were some in the crowd who yelled at the BLM protesters to go away and to not give them a spotlight, the event organizer invited them on stage to speak, and what happened next shows that there is still hope in the way we speak to each other politically.

"It kind of restored my faith in some of those people," said Hawk Newsome, president of the New York chapter of Black Lives Matter.

He added, "I feel like two sides that never listen to each other actually made progress."
