A record-low percentage of citizens are proud to be American: Is national pride a problem?
Manage episode 492558023 series 2388288
A new poll shows a record-low 58 percent of US adults are either extremely or very proud to be American. Despite the drop, nearly 90 percent still express at least some level of national pride. Generational divides and growing discontent with politics, economics, and culture have shaped this trend, especially among younger Americans. But America’s flaws should not blind us to its blessings—nor should its blessings blind us to its flaws. So what’s behind this shift? And what can history teach us about it?
