The Deadly Isms | S2 Ep 2: Nationalism

This is The Deadly Isms, and Matt Kibbe going to prove to you that you can love your country without hating everybody else’s. Let’s talk about nationalism. Going far beyond simple pride in where you come from, nationalism is the idea that the collective view of the nation comes first and the people who make up the nation come second. It’s also the view that nations are in constant competition with each other. These ideas have caused immense human suffering over the years. They turn people against each other and give more political power to those in charge. Matt Kibbe breaks it all down in this important episode of The Deadly Isms.
