We've Been Here Before: Senior Wisdom in Divided Times
About this episode
In this episode, I explore how today's political division, fear, and censorship in America echo some of the darkest chapters in our history - the American Revolution, the Civil War, the McArthy era of the 1950's, Vietnam, Nixon, Watergate and the horror and terror pf 9/11.
Is it time for young people who have lived a very long time to take up the reins of common sense and attempt to quell the fires of suspicion and hatred that have caused us to lose the ability to have civil discourse when we don't agree? If so, how do we do this?
One way is to use out hard-won wisdom to guide others, to assure them that we have been down these streets before and we always manage to come back strong.
I say yes. It is time to lead with calm, courage and clarity.
Join me.
