I enjoyed listening to the different observations and reflections of the mostly male voices in this piece. Of course, I happen to agree with much of what’s being said about America’s country’s warring, controlling nature, including the culture’s insatiable need to consume and then some. Thoughtful quotes from Norman Mailer, Mark Hertsgaard and Allen Ginsberg frame a series of voices, some of color, whose interesting insights and reactions provide food for thought, especially if you see the world differently than the speakers in this piece. Fear is always worth examining since it’s at the heart of so many of our actions, and this is indeed a nuanced journey into the topic. That there’s no attempt at balance is somewhat of a relief given the narrowing definition of what it means to be patriotic these days. This would be perfect Sunday or evening programming.
