S2E4 - Happy Days Are Here Again?
4 years ago
In this episode, we speak with author, historian, professor and Director of Secondary Education at Hofstra University, Dr. Alan Singer, who argues that Civics is Not Dead – it’s just morphed into student activism about issues like climate change. But, Dr. Singer warns us – this activism must be brought back into the classroom and channeled into more participatory democracy in our schools or democracy will not survive the long haul.
