Proud to be an American?

BridgeND | Thursday, January 18, 2018

Identity politics: a real problem

Eddie Damstra | Thursday, October 12, 2017

One of my biggest fears in today’s American society is the increasing prominence of identity politics. The 2016 election proved that politicians are drifting away from championing ideas and principles and instead moving towards pandering to group identities.
