Folge vom 09.06.2020Trump v Nixon on Race: Why 2020 Isn't Quite 19682020 is '68 all over again. But not the '68 you think. Yes, 1968 also saw protests, racial divisions and political polarization.

But Serwer says 1868 is a better point of comparison – it was a moment of hope, when white Republicans had been fighting for black rights for years, before ultimately abandoning them to pursue white voters. Serwer sees Americans coming together in this moment, as they have in the past, but as a student of history, he says the backlash always comes eventually.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
