Those choices capture what Paul Starr calls the American contradiction.The whole truth about America, Starr argues in this new history of the United States since the 1950s, has never been contained in one consistent set of values or interests. The nation was born in the contradiction between freedom and slavery. Today it is beset by a contradiction between a changing people and a resisting nation, a nation with entrenched institutions that have empowered those who fear the changes and look to restore an old America of their imagining.Join us live in Washington, DC for a discussion with Paul Starr, Michael Kazin, and Jamelle Bouie.Agenda?: 05:00 PM - 07:00 PMDiscussion with Paul Starr, Michael Kazin, and Jamelle Bouie
