COVER STORY: Building bridges across the American divide
U.S. high school seniors who participate in the American Exchange Project (or AEP) are sent on a free, week-long trip to a hometown very different from their own. Correspondent Lee Cowan talks with AEP's co-founder, David McCullough III, and with students who have crossed the boundaries of blue states and red states to find the grey areas of common ground.

BOOKS: Rachel Maddow on "Prequel" and the rise of the fascist movement in America
Prior to World War II, a significant number of Nazi sympathizers in the U.S. were secretly meeting to promote antisemitic and far-right propaganda, with the intent to set up a Hitler-style dictatorship in America. Attempts to bring them to justice, for the most part, failed. MSNBC's Rachel Maddow, author of the new book "Prequel," talks with correspondent Rita Braver about our nation's long-running fight against fascism, and how it relates to today's conspiracy theories and ultra-right propaganda.

ENTERTAINMENT: The return of "The Greatest Show on Earth"
Created by P.T. Barnum in 1871 and named "The Greatest Show on Earth," Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus shut down in 2017. But now this American institution is being reimagined for a new age, and is relaunching a two-year tour, featuring aerial acts, a new take on clowns, and no animals (except a robot dog named Bailey). Correspondent Martha Teichner reports on how the circus is catapulting into the future.

COMMENTARY: The horror! Jim Gaffigan on horrible kids' movies

MUSIC: The mystery behind Sly Stone, now revealed
Sly Stone, who invented his own kind of funky hybrid of rock 'n' roll and R&B with his '60s group Sly and the Family Stone, has been living a private life for decades. Now 80, the reclusive music great has just penned a memoir, "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)." Correspondent Kelefa Sanneh talks with Questlove (who published the book), Sly's longtime friend George Clinton, and with Sly's real family, about the musician's revolutionary band; a life revolving around drugs; and how he is today.

WORLD: The bitter reality behind chocolate
Chocolate is a more than $100 billion industry, but its story is not all sweet. The U.S. Department of Labor estimates that 1.5 million children still work illegally on cocoa plantations. Correspondent Seth Doane visits Ghana, where much of the world's cocoa beans are grown, and talks with candymakers who are working to cultivate chocolate free from child labor, and help harvesters earn a living wage.
