"The paradox of the frustrated majority is that the 70% think they're in the minority because the minorities are much louder." - Seth Radwell -------------------------------------------------------------------   In a recent episode of "Joseph Jaffe is Not Famous," I had the pleasure of welcoming back Seth David Radwell, the author of the critically acclaimed book, "American Schism." Seth's return to the show couldn't have been timelier. Our conversation delved deep into the divisions plaguing our nation and explored potential pathways to healing these rifts. Some of the key highlights from this episode include: The importance of using empirical data and facts, rather than emotions, in political decision-making and debates.  The need for the "frustrated majority" of citizens to become more engaged and take action, as extremes currently dominate media and politics. The concept of "deep listening" - actively seeking to understand different perspectives through research rather than just paying lip service.  The role of compromise in politics and history, as shown by examples like the Constitution and immigration reform efforts.  The challenges caused by political polarization and postmodern rejection of objective truth, and the need for unity through open discussion of issues. -------------------------------------------------------------------   Here are the show notes:    Political polarization and the importance of focusing on truth. (0:08) The frustrated majority and the need for action in a polarized world. (9:40) Political polarization and the need for the "frustrated majority" to take action. (14:26) The importance of using empirical data in political decision-making. (21:48) The importance of truth and facts in a postmodern society, with a focus on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. (29:06) Political polarization and the need for unity. (38:12) Importance of truth and education in democracy. (42:34) Free speech, social media regulation, and the importance of deep listening. (48:12) Political compromise and the importance of listening. (54:53) Compromise and finding common ground in politics. (59:38)   -------------------------------------------------------------------   "It's nice to say let's be bipartisan. But we're a partisan nation. We were raised as a partisan nation." - Colin Powell -------------------------------------------------------------------   If you like what you see, please subscribe to the show: bit.ly/subscribetotheshow Learn more about your ad choices.

Seth David Radwell, author of American Schism: How the Two Enlightenments Hold the Secret to Healing Our Nation, which won the International Book Award for Best General Nonfiction in 2023, characterizes the forces driving the schisms in our society. With a view of the past and an analysis of what supports a healthy democracy, part of the solution, he contends, is the election system needs structural reform. There is a need for more competitive races and open primaries, focusing on issues, not just the candidates trying to be the most extreme in the primaries. We talk about: Role social media is playing to fuel these divisions Current student protests and protest movements throughout history Disinformation, censorship, revisionism, hate speech Responsibility of the business sector to help heal the divide Building resilience and conducting open, civil conversations Overcoming voter apathy and addressing the frustrated majority How moving forward and holding on to a path creates tension in societies Why he is optimistic for the future of our democracy #FightUnreasonWithReason #AmericanSchismBook #Democracy #Partisanship #Voters #VoterApathy AmericanSchismBook.com

Today's guest, Seth David Radwell, is the author of the book “American Schism: How the Two Enlightenments Hold the Secret to Healing Our Nation.” Not too long ago, we came out of the midterms, and I've been thinking a lot about what the results mean for the years ahead. Every election feels like a game of monkey in the middle between the two parties, with the citizens in the middle. It often feels like nothing changes, we're just passing the ball back and forth.    One of the interesting things about Seth is that he is not looking at politics from a left or right perspective - he looks at it in terms of the fracturing we are experiencing. Seth's ultimate message is that if we don't make structural changes to the way we conduct politics, we won't have a democracy for very long.    It often feels like our democracy is hanging on by a thread between the pressure of big business interests and corruption within the system. Our political system is set up in a way that doesn't allow us to make progress, and we all suffer for it. At the same time, we as citizens are too busy arguing with one another to actually hold our elected officials accountable for the promises that they make us and to solve the issues.   Seth uses history as a tool to examine what is going on in the modern world, drawing heavily from the Enlightenment as well as important turning points in American history. Seth looks at the points where we were most divided and focuses on the areas where we were able to come together. Seth also draws on his business background to find problem-solving methodologies that can be deployed to help bridge the divide between Americans on either side of the political aisle.   Let's dive right in.   Find Seth David Radwell here:   American Schism Book: https://www.amazon.com/American-Schism-Enlightenments-Secret-Healing/dp/1626348618/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3M7RZ677MPO08&keywords=american+schism&qid=1673041498&sprefix=american+sc%2Caps%2C412&sr=8-1    Website: https://sethdavidradwell.com/ Find Nick Thompson here:   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nthompson513/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXipWcR8Pit6vYHd1ZcKgKg

Seth David Radwell is the author of the Amazon bestselling book, American Schism: How the Two Enlightenments Hold the Secret to Healing Our Nation. He discusses his experience as a marketing executive and student of public policy and what concerns him about the strength of our democracy.  He shares insights from his research around fighting unreason with reason with a historical view back to the Enlightenment and how those earlier divisions in our history are still part of the US political landscape. We talk about: The conflicting views of the Moderates and the Radicals during Enlightenment that are still influencing the discussions and laws regarding the role of government and the rights of citizens What role do private-sector business leaders have in helping heal the American Schism and how should they decide which public policy issues to confront? How risky is it for them to stay silent? The counter-Enlightenment and the age of Trumpism How technology and digital media has changed the power of the government  Whether highly partisan elected officials accurately represent the values of their constituents The impact of the pandemic and war in Ukraine on partisanship in the US What can be done to bring the reasonable exchange of ideas back to political discourse and how we talk to each other #SethDavidRadwell #AmericanSchism #FUWR #FightingUnreasonWithReason FUWR.org AmericanSchismBook.com

Two disparate Americas have always coexisted. In this thoroughly researched, engaging and ultimately hopeful story of our nation's divergent roots, Seth David Radwell clearly links the fascinating history of the two American Enlightenments to our raging political division. He also demonstrates that reasoned analysis and historical perspective are the only antidote to irrational political discourse.“Did my vision of America ever exist at all, or was it but a myth?” Searching for a fresh and distinctive perspective on the recent corrosion of our civic life, Radwell's very personal and yet broadly shared question propelled his search back to our nation's founding for a fresh and distinctive perspective on the recent corrosion of our civic life - and led to a surprising discovery. Today's battles reflect the fundamentally divergent visions of our country that emerged at our nation's founding and have been vying for prominence ever since. The founding principles that shaped the United States may be rooted in the Enlightenment era. But the origin of our dual Americas is a product of two distinct Enlightenments - Radical and Moderate.American Schism begins with a quick reintroduction to the pre-Enlightenment Middle Ages and then takes readers on an in-depth journey through the revolutionary Enlightenment period including the eventual schism that began in Europe but then found its way to American shores. Radwell shows the impact of this schism on American history from the early expansion of the U.S. through Jim Crow and The Age of Trumpism.In an optimistic and rigorous final section, Radwell lays out an analysis of our current governmental structure and a plan to move forward, demonstrating that it is only by embracing Enlightenment principles that we can build a civilized, progressive, and tolerant society - where Americans can firmly ground their different views in rationality.HOST:  Rob MellonFEATURED BREW:  Outta Line West Coast IPA, Rogue Ales, Portland, OregonBOOK:  American Schism: How the Two Enlightenments Hold the Secret to Healing our Nation https://www.amazon.com/American-Schism-Enlightenments-Secret-Healing/dp/1626348618/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1643778919&sr=8-1MUSIC:  Bones Forkhttps://bonesfork.com/

He also demonstrates that reasoned analysis and historical perspective are the only antidote to irrational political discourse. “Did my vision of America ever exist at all, or was it but a myth?” Searching for a fresh and distinctive perspective on the recent corrosion of our civic life, Radwell's very personal and yet broadly shared question propelled his search back to the nation's founding for a fresh and distinctive perspective on the recent corrosion of its civic life - and led to a surprising discovery. Today's battles reflect the fundamentally divergent visions of our country that emerged at the nation's founding and have been vying for prominence ever since. The founding principles that shaped the United States may be rooted in the Enlightenment era. But the origin of our dual Americas is a product of two distinct Enlightenments - Radical and Moderate. Radwell shows the impact of this schism on American history from the early expansion of the U.S. through Jim Crow and The Age of Trumpism. In an optimistic final section, Radwell lays out an analysis of our current governmental structure and a plan to move forward, arguing that it is only by embracing Enlightenment principles that we can build a civilized, progressive, and tolerant society - where Americans can firmly ground their different views in rationality.

Pundits on both the left and right proclaim our democracy is in crisis. This can be characterized by an eroding of civil institutions or politicians completely ignoring democratic norms by doing whatever is necessary to seek power and asking “where are the nuclear launch codes?” However, these challenges may not be so new. And the fault lines in our society may be centuries old and stem back to the beginning of the Enlightenment, when scholars asked fundamental questions of how we know what is and isn't true, and how do we order our society along those principles. Different intellectuals had different solutions, so you have the American Revolution on one hand, and the French Revolution on the other. But today's guest, Seth David Radwell a researcher of the Enlightenment and A business leader with a master's degree in Public Policy from Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, argues that our political divisions are not “unprecedented.” In his book, American Schism: How the Two Enlightenments Hold the Secret to Healing Our Nation, Radwell , proposes a new dialogue between thoughtful and concerned Americans from both red and blue states who make up the exhausted majority—a dialogue informed by our country's history.Increasingly disturbed by the contentious state of politics, social unrest, and the apparent disappearance of “truth,” Radwell set out to examine his own long-held assumptions about American democracy and ideals. Through a deep dive into foundational documents and the influence of the European Enlightenment, he discovered today's raging conflicts have their roots in the fundamentally different visions of America that emerged at our nation's founding. In American Schism, Radwell looks at our country's history and ongoing political tensions through the lens of the Radical Enlightenment versus the Moderate Enlightenment, and their dynamic interplay with Counter-Enlightenment movements over the last few centuries. He offers a new vision for America with practical action steps for repairing our rift and healing our wounds.

We're talking about Books That Make You Realize There Are Two Americas – And What We Can Do To (Possibly) Bring Them Together We skirt around politics, since it informs so much of the literature we read. The goal of our show is to bring people together, not to divide them. There is enough of that happening now. But then along comes a book, and an author, who aligns with our vision of doing what we can to heal our nation, rather than further separate and fragment it. Seth David Radwell is the author of American Schism: How the Two Enlightenments Hold the Secret to Healing Our Nation. Our democracy is in crisis, he says, and analyzes our history and present ongoing tensions through the lens of the Radical Enlightenment versus the Moderate Enlightenment, and the way they interact with Counter-Enlightenment attitudes that have festered over the last few hundred years. Despite the dire pronouncements from various pundits, Seth knows from his research that our political divisions are hardly unprecedented…nor are they irreconcilable.

Seth David Radwell was puzzled when he noticed his colleagues were increasingly less inclined to discuss topics of national interest. “How are we,” he says, “as a democratic republic, going to forge solutions if we can't even discuss the problem?” Radwell says the way to reignite robust public discussion is to embrace enlightenment values--objectivity, science, and tolerance. Radwell's deeply researched book, “American Schism: How the Two Enlightenments Hold the Secret to Healing Our Nation,” explores the roots of discord through an analysis of how the moderate and radical strands of enlightenment thought clashed throughout history and into modern times.
