July Liberalism in Practice Panel Discussion: Defining Patriotism
Are Patriotism and Nationalism meaningful terms or simply verbal clubs? Today both terms mean a wide range of things and are often used indiscriminately. Are they meant to show pride and deep feeling? Are they simply a quaint notion of a "better" time? Or are they divisive terms that reflect the polarization in America?
The panel explores both terms from the perspective of U.S. veterans and what the terms mean to them in view of America’s recent celebration of the creation the great American experiment almost 250 years ago.
