Amy has just the right touch to be informative and getting political history out with the music from our recent tumultuous past.

Apple Podcasts5semdougUnited States9 months ago Another brain washed woke woman talking about, supposed, racial division and people's hatred of America in 1976. ( Ep. 31). She says people of the 70's felt America should not celebrate its indepence due to slavery. This could not be further from the truth. I grew up and worked in a VERY racially diverse town in the 70's. NO ONE was hyper focused on racism and slavery like they are today, especially during the Bicentennial!
TIP:Focus on the music and less on racism and current day ideology.
