The variety of Individuals who would say that they’re “extraordinarily proud to be American” is at a document low, based on a latest Gallup ballot. Maybe that’s not shocking, given widespread political divisiveness throughout the nation. In the present day – in time for Thanksgiving – Audie sits down with author, comic, and activist Baratunde Thurston to speak about what it means to be patriotic in an age of rising disillusionment. And extra importantly — why does it matter?
