This is Walter Isaacson. In today’s highly-charged political atmosphere, many Americans are searching for common ground…. A place where we can meet as a first step to hearing, appreciating and understanding our shared values and ideals. To that end, Tulane University and the Aspen Institute have partnered to launch the Values in America Speaker Series. This podcast features the best of those speakers who visit Tulane in New Orleans, as well in-studio interviews with scholars, historians, politicians, and regular Americans, where will dive deep into conversations about our culture. What are the core values of our American culture? Do we still subscribe to the same ideals of our founders? Can these United States still be united under the flag of those ideals…. Liberty, Equality, Democracy? Thank you for asking these questions along with us.
