Show Notes

We discuss the role of schools to form effective citizens in our democracy. It's necessary to prioritize the teaching of our history and our government.

James's civic action toolkit recommendations are:

  1. Push back against corrosive technology, especially in schools

  2. Read books!

James Traub is a journalist, historian, and author of The Cradle of Citizenship: How Schools Can Help Save Our Democracy.
