Unraveling America’s Contradictions - Part 2

Send us a message

Join hosts Bobbi Fisher and Joe Ulery as they discuss moments in America’s 250-year history when the country didn’t live up to the ideals it was built on—like equality and segregation, limited government v expansive government, freedom of speech v restrictions on speech, and the American Dream v economic inequality. This is not saying America is good or bad, but that it is complicated. It’s about understanding these contradictions and managing, or fixing, them to fit the ideals that we have celebrated for over 250 years.
