Candidates- Here is your invitation/schedule to talk to us
We supposedly live in “the information age.” But do we? We may be well informed, but are we more literate than previous generations? I highly doubt it. We have all kinds of information at our fingertips, but is it trustworthy? Are we qualified to determine that? And just because the information distribution is legal, does that make it ethical? I believe we know better than that. We are inundated with information, but there are forces attempting to control our understanding. That’s where we have a problem.
We’ll begin with why we can’t have nice things. We’ll move into information and we’ll close with history and just what we think we know. As usual, Dave Bowman will make us consider our current understanding in a new light.
DAVE DOES HISTORY returns at 8am. Dave has a pet peeve and it goes something like this: We think of our country today as "more divided than ever." I mean, "everybody knows" that, right? Putting aside for the moment, the US Civil War, is this a time when we are the "most divided ever?" Dave says, “Believe me when I tell you this: what "everybody knows" is wrong...”
