Episode description

Join me and brilliant Georgetown history professor, author of Democracy Americana and host of the ’Is This Democracy’ podcast as we discuss where democracy is in America post the 2022 midterms. The Declaration of Independence might talk about a country where all men are created equal, but if we’re honest with ourselves, that’s not what everyone wants. History tells us there are those, an entire party in fact, who’d prefer to have a certain group in charge and know they don’t need the majority to achieve it. They simply need to convince enough people in the center that their worldview is better than what the left is offering and we could find ourselves in permanent minority rule. The truth of the matter is, our country is incredibly divided, and it’s up to us, every single one of us, to decide which way we want to go. There’s no middle ground left, no more excuses to be made, people must choose.  Guest social: Website: https://gufaculty360.georgetown.edu/s/contact/0033600001q9V3MAAU/thomas-zimmer Podcast: Is This Democracy https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/is-this-democracy/id1652741954 Substack: Democracy Americana https://thomaszimmer.substack.com/ Twitter: @tzimmer_history Please RATE and SUBSCRIBE so we can grow the show, open the dialogue, and inspire change moving forward!
