We often think of America as a force of good in the world. Our nation provides foreign aid and spreads democracy. Certainly, America does much good. Yet there is a dark side of American influence abroad. In this episode, Stephen examines the dual America: the noble, generous, value-driven America of Ellis Island, and the America that obtusely puts a fist in the face of those she aims to serve. (Take, for example, the US Embassy in Kabul flying the LGBTQ flag in the middle of a highly conservative Muslim society that is radically opposed to gay issues.) Tune in and ponder these two Americas.
