"Tools of Civics: reason, logic, clarity of thought, dissent, debate, and civility"
~Richard Dreyfuss
Dreyfuss gets his chronology mixed up in a few places, but what do you think of his point?
Note connection to Neil Postman's Narrative: "The American Experiment" (the story of America as a great experiment and as a center of continuous argument)and earlier post on Maine's Common Core of Learning Revisited.
