“It’s Really Hard to Understand How We Share the Same Country with These People"

“It’s Really Hard to Understand How We Share the Same Country with These People"

As we celebrate America's 250th birthday, Seth reflects on the state of our nation and the values that once united us. From the Supreme Court's recent decisions, highlighting the challenges of understanding the law in a society where opinions are sharply divided. He also touches on the importance of education in shaping our understanding of American history and values, pointing out that the current education system often focuses on the negative aspects of our nation's past. This leads to a skewed view of American history, where young people are more likely to associate the country with slavery than with its founding principles. Remembering the life of David Clayton-Thomas of the band Blood, Sweat, and Tears. We’re joined by Don Spini and Logan Marcus, Esq. from Sun Valley Wealth. A listener call-in comment on the difference between the celebration of the American Bicentennial in 1976 and the Semiquincentennial this year.   See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
