“Love the show & the project.
2 points. Bob mentions civic education in both episodes 2&3, but the point is not pursued. Civic education is not the same thing as political awareness or involvement.
I’d like to hear more discussion on how better education in civics and history can be disseminated, in schools and otherwise in American society, and any studies of its effects on our politics.
I’d also note that the discussion in episode 3 comparing the first gilded age, and the reform that followed, egregiously omitted mention of both the Great Depression and two world wars (not to mention Prohibition).
Thanks. Keep up the astonishingly good work, Bob and Brooke!
