Summary

From the pandemic to the election, this past year has seen our country go wild in taking sides to fight those with different belief systems. But who exactly are these others, these faceless ‘they’ that are supposedly driven to undermine everything one stands for?

In this podcast episode, the Amens discuss the problems with herd mentality, why technology and social media may be partly to blame, and how to identity others for who they really are.
