Richard Slotkin, cultural critic and historian, professor of English and American Studies at Wesleyan University, discusses his recent book A Great Disorder: National Myth and the Battle for America.
After expanding on the utility of these mythologies, particularly within the context of the US economic and legal systems, Professor Slotkin brings Sam and Emma into the modern era, outlining the grounding mythologies of the MAGA movement in the Lost Cause and the Second Amendment, and how Democrats can (and might be) learning how to use these mythologies to their benefit as Conservatives do.
