Episode Description
What does it mean to be American? Most Americans can no longer answer that question.
In this episode, Professor Nick Giordano examines the growing civic knowledge crisis and why the inability to define American identity is the greatest internal threat to the Republic. Across the country, civic understanding is collapsing. Students are graduating without understanding the structure of government, the principles of the Constitution, or the philosophy of the American founding.
When citizens cannot explain the system they live under, they cannot defend it, preserve it, or hold it accountable. This episode explores how civic ignorance fuels political division, government expansion, and a dangerous loss of national identity.
