Episode description

Only 26% of Americans know there are 3 branches of government. Many states don't require classes about civics to be a graduation requirement. As a result, millions of teens aren't educated about the Constitution, how government works, or their fundamental rights. This will have lasting impacts. Gen Z is the future for politics and schooling in America, meaning that we need to be informed. This week, I talked with Nick about all things civic education and what we can be doing to spread awareness.

Thanks for tuning in!
