After a vote that banned same-sex marriage in California, activist David Fleischer and his team at the Los Angeles LGBT Center started knocking on doors to test whether they could change voters' minds with a simple conversation. The results were encouraging. In this talk, Fleischer stresses the importance of deep canvassing and face to face interactions in reversing prejudice and effecting political change.
