A Better Human Story with Dr. Andrew Schmookler

Its no secret the American political culture is broken and is in need of repair. Dr. Andrew Bard Schmookler is an award-winning author, summa cum laude graduate of Harvard University, former Democratic candidate for Congress, former talk radio host. Andy’s weekly op-ed pieces have appeared in newspapers around the country. Since 2004, Dr. Schmookler has focused his attention on the current crisis in America, which he sees as perhaps the most profound to face this nation in its history. Though this crisis manifests itself in the political sphere, he sees it as also involving a deterioration of the moral and spiritual dimensions, which have a big impact on the balance of power between constructive and destructive forces in a society. Dr. Schmookler’s current work, A Better Human Story, focuses on enabling humankind to better understand the forces at work that have driven the story of humankind on this planet. His insight into those forces shows we are capable of a much brighter future than most contemporary thinking imagines possible. He joined me this week to discuss how we can achieve a better human story. He also provided his perspective on the current state of American Politics today.
