A podcast exploring critical issues facing America today - social justice causes, systemic racial oppression chief among them; an outdated, visionless and unsustainable foreign policy; a broken food system in which we are literally eating ourselves to death, and a political system so dysfunctional it feels almost beyond reform. All of this unfolding within a world of accelerating exponential technological change and in a country that doesn’t really know itself. Where myths and half-truths still define the narratives we believe in and live by. So who are we really, deep down? And how did we get here? What’s actually happening today, right now? And where do we go from here, together, as a nation and a people – in a future that is very much to be determined.
