The number of Americans who would say that they’re “extremely proud to be American” is at a record low, according to a recent Gallup poll. Perhaps that’s not surprising, given widespread political divisiveness across the country. Today – in time for Thanksgiving – Audie sits down with writer, comedian, and activist Baratunde Thurston to talk about what it means to be patriotic in an age of growing disillusionment. And more importantly — why does it matter?  


Baratunde Thurston (https://www.baratunde.com/) is the host and executive producer of the PBS television series America Outdoors (https://www.pbs.org/about/about-pbs/blogs/news/america-outdoors-with-baratunde-thurston-premieres-july-5-2022-on-pbs/), creator and host of How To Citizen (https://www.howtocitizen.com/), and a founding partner of the new media startup Puck. His comedic memoir, How To Be Black (https://www.baratunde.com/howtobeblack), is a New York Times best-seller.
