Chelsea High School in Massachusetts is around 90 percent Latino, and the city has been ground zero for ICE raids in the Boston area.

On this third and final installment of PATRIOTISM IS A VERB, host Anna Kusmer talks to Chelsea High history teacher Byron Williams about framing the complex history of the US to students and why the Declaration of Independence is still a radical document.  Email us at saymore@globe.com.

This episode is a re-air. For Independence Day, Grettelyn Darkey and Joe Grabowski set conversation aside and let G.K. Chesterton speak. This special gathers a curated series of Chesterton's reflections on America—the idea of the citizen, the creed at the heart of the Declaration of Independence, the nature of true patriotism, the true soldier, and the difference between the right sort of patriot and the wrong sort of politician—woven together with the strains of the nation's great patriotic songs. Drawn largely from What I Saw in America, they reveal a Chesterton who saw the American experiment more clearly than most Americans do. In This Episode: Why G.K. Chesterton called America "the one great state in the world in which many types and races are united by one idea"—the idea of the citizen—and "almost more like a great church than merely a great nation" G.K. Chesterton's case that America is "the only nation in the world that is founded on a creed," one set forth in the Declaration of Independence with "dogmatic and even theological lucidity" What G.K. Chesterton meant by true patriotism, and why he held that "my country, right or wrong" is something "no patriot would think of saying, except in a desperate case" G.K. Chesterton on the true soldier, who "fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him" G.K. Chesterton's account of "Americanization"—the making of "a nation out of exiles"—and why he found the process unlike anything else in the world Resources Mentioned: What I Saw in America by G.K.

“What's Buggin' You” segment for Tuesday 7-14-26

Listen to the rest of this premium episode by subscribing at patreon.com/knowyourenemy. This conversation is something of a follow-up to our last episode on Garry Wills's Lincoln at Gettysburg: The Words That Remade America. We begin by "providing receipts" for the views of prominent midcentury conservative intellectuals (Willmoore Kendall, Russell Kirk, and Mel Bradford, to name a few) about the Declaration, equality, and Lincoln, then take a step back to discuss what their quarrel with Lincoln, Harry Jaffa, Garry Wills, and other partisans of equality might reveal about the nature of the American founding and the shape of our country's history. After all that—and more—we consider NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani's July 3 speech celebrating America's 250th anniversary and the promise and perils of leftwing patriotism.

The trio celebrates Independence day for the United States and Canada as we answer your trade and strategy questions.

Today, on Karl and Crew, we wrapped up our weekly theme, "Living Free," focusing on being living dangerously Free. Dr. Sam Storms joined us to explore how the Holy Spirit empowers believers to live boldly for Christ. Looking at Acts 4, we discussed what it means to be filled with the Spirit, trust God’s sovereignty, and find the courage to proclaim the gospel faithfully. Dr. Storms is the founder and president of Enjoying God Ministries and serves on the Council of the Gospel Coalition. The Director of the Land Center for Cultural Engagement at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Daniel Darling, also joined us to discuss Christian patriotism, civic responsibility, and how believers can love their country without turning politics or national identity into an idol.He wrote, “In Defense of Christian Patriotism.” You can hear the highlights of today’s program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.

Chris Hagenow and John Hendrickson are back in the Hendrickson Library — Dr. Pepper Zero firmly in hand — for a wide-ranging episode covering American patriotism, election integrity, faith in politics, and Iowa voter registration trends.The episode opens with a reflection on America's 250th birthday. Chris wanted more. The fireworks, the parades, the national moment — it didn't feel commensurate with what 250 years of the greatest experiment in self-government deserves. John connects the muted celebration to decades of failure to teach American history, and the two discuss why the left's framework for America — defined by grievance rather than gratitude — is increasingly out of step with how the rest of the world sees this country.From there, a Des Moines Register story catches their attention: a coalition of faith leaders warning that voting integrity laws are "the moral issue of our time." Chris and John take that claim seriously — and find it wanting. The conversation gets at something deeper than any specific piece of legislation: when social justice becomes the gospel, what happens to the actual gospel?The back half covers Iowa's new voter registration numbers — Democrats and Republicans both added voters coming out of the primaries, while independents declined — and what that tells us about Rob Sand's argument for a jungle primary. Spoiler: it doesn't hold up. The episode closes with a clear distinction between what conservatives mean when they talk about election law versus what the left is actually proposing, and a reminder to flip your ballot over this fall and vote yes on the constitutional amendment.0:10 Welcome 1:09 Trivia3:16 Smithsonian: correcting the American history narrative5:23 Fourth of July rhetoric from the left9:10 America at 250 16:48 Faith leaders and voting rights18:35 The Save Act and voter ID22:21 When social justice becomes the gospel26:53 Iowa voter registration numbers28:39 Sand's jungle primary argument falls apart30:45 Election law reform vs. what the left actually wants34:07 Reform vs. revolution35:06 Candidates on taxes — next episode35:32 Vote yes & sign off

Joseph Sternberg. Cultural Divides: American Earnestness vs. European Cynicism. During the World Cup, Sternberg observes that European visitors are struck by American earnestness regarding God, patriotism, and politics. He notes that while shared history exists, deep cultural divisions persist; Europeans often view patriotism as destructive, whereas Americans continue to view it as a healthy instinct. (8)

RECALL: Act Three By the time RECALL reaches Act Three, Miami Military Academy is no longer pretending it can survive. The school is still marching, still saluting, still shining brass and barking orders into the Florida heat, but the center is gone. Colonel Barnes is dying. Commander Patterson knows it. Sally knows it. And the boys, even when they are laughing too hard to say it out loud, can feel the whole place slipping into history. Written by Academy Award nominee Bruce Davison, and once optioned and held by the great Carroll O’Connor with eyes on a Pacino lead,, RECALL is a funny, savage, deeply human coming-of-age drama about abandoned boys, broken fathers, old soldiers, Cuban exiles, secret weapons, and the terrible bargain countries make when they ask the young to carry the sins of the old. Act Three begins with the last quiet hours before everything breaks. Lishinsky and Sally steal a small piece of freedom on the water, drifting toward Captain Kidd’s Island, talking about California, escape, fathers, graves, and the strange fantasy that two damaged kids might simply sail away from all of it. But nobody really gets away from Miami Military Academy. Not yet. Inside Barnes’ house, Patterson sits beside a dying friend and is handed the thing no soldier wants: responsibility without rescue. Barnes tells him the Army is calling in its chips. The school, the land, the boys, the munitions, the whole dream is coming apart. Patterson rages because he knows what the place is, and what it has been. A broken institution, yes. A madhouse, absolutely. But also the only home some of these boys have ever had. Then the machinery starts moving. The Army arrives. The Cuban officials arrive. The inspection becomes theater. A live round falls where it should not. The old bunkers by the bay are suddenly more important than the boys standing in formation. The parade takes them through Miami and into the Dade County Fair, where the whole strange, glorious organism of “A” Company explodes into one last carnival of cigars, sheep, majorettes, busted noses, bad decisions, and Patterson turning, for one mad instant, into the hero the boys still need him to be. But the comedy cannot hold the line forever. Colonel Barnes is gone. The flag drops to half-mast. The Razor Fiend is finally revealed. Lindquist, the feral boy from the mango trees, becomes a cadet, a savior, and maybe the strangest proof that the academy was never only a school. It was a place that took in the lost and gave them a uniform because it had no better language for love. Slouch and Bebop reach the end of pretending. Bebop is called home by a country that no longer exists the way he remembers it. Slouch follows because friendship, for him, is the only oath that ever meant anything. The Cuban exiles come in the night. Patterson tries to stop them. History steps over him. Sally leaves for California. Lishinsky stays behind with the ache of first love and the knowledge that some people are not meant to be held. Patterson sits with his ghosts. The boys graduate into a world already waiting to use them. And somewhere beyond the academy walls, the Bay of Pigs turns courage, loyalty, and bad American promises into blood in the surf. RECALL is about boyhood at the edge of the American century, when duty still sounded clean from a podium and war still knew how to dress itself up as honor. It is about boys who wanted fathers, fathers who failed them, soldiers who could not save themselves, and a country that keeps asking the young to pay for the old men’s maps. Starring Alan Rosenberg, Carson Bolde, Stone Garcia, Wesley Kimmel, Dan Lauria, Kensington Tallman, Roxton Garcia, Bruce Davison, Luca Diaz, Amari O’Neil, Amir O’Neil, David Errigo Jr., Zeke Alton, Gian Franco Rodriguez, Miki Yamashita, Nemil Mudvari, Sofia D’Marco, and Ashley Ciarra.

Two guesses about the topic of this special bonus edition for today's semiquincentennial, and neither of them count. That's right: we take up the Declaration of Independence and revisit some of the lingering issues that have arisen during this season of renewed debate about America's "birth certificate," as well as a few that haven't seen much discussion.For example, John noted in National Review Online that contrary to popular impression, the Declaration does not reject energetic executive power, while Steve recall for The Daily Wire (alas, paywalled) the contrast between how the left handled the bicentennial in 1976 and how they are approaching it today, calling it "The Patriotism Crisis That Could Tear America Apart."Sample:"Patriotism among a growing number of Democrats seems conditional about whether they are in power or not. And a conditional patriotism is a weak patriotism. The last time so many Democrats were conditional about their attachment to the country and their fellow citizens ended in a civil war. “Patriotism is civic friendship,” the political philosopher Harry Jaffa once wrote. “Patriotism is the link between justice and friendship in its purest or transpolitical form. Those who see each other as utterly alien cannot be fellow citizens.”Note: The 3WHH will be going on hiatus for the rest of July, as we retool the show for a new season. Stay tuned for announcements on our group Substack, Political Questions, for updates.

1. Celebration of America's 250th Anniversary The courage of the 56 signers of the Declaration. The risks they took by declaring independence from Great Britain. The historical significance of America's founding principles. The importance of celebrating national milestones regardless of current political disagreements. 2. American Exceptionalism Rights come from God rather than government. Government exists to protect those rights. Sovereignty resides with the people ("We the People"). The constitutional system limits governmental power through separation of powers and federalism. 3. Civic Education and Family Values Spend time with their families during Independence Day celebrations. Teach children about American history. Discuss what it means to be an American citizen. Reflect on the freedoms and opportunities available in the United States. 4. National Pride Americans should be proud of their country. Patriotism should transcend party politics. National celebrations should not be tied to support or opposition to a specific political leader. 6. American Foreign Policy and Israel The U.S.-Israel relationship. Shared democratic values between the two nations. Support for Israel as a key American ally. 7. Sports and National Unity The FIFA World Cup. American support for the U.S. national team. Sports as a way to promote national unity and patriotism. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
