  • Could Civil War Make a Comeback in a Divided Nation?
    In this episode, our guest is a conservative author who envisions a second civil war that takes place nearly 40 years in the future. I believe in the power of dialogue to drive change, so If you enjoyed this episode, please like and subscribe! We have many more thought-provoking discussions lined up that you won't want to miss.

    In this episode of Lean to the Left, our guest is William R. Douglas, author of 'The Sum of All Our Anger' (https://amzn.to/3SOeeoW), a futuristic novel imagining how civil war makes a comeback in our divided nation.

    We discuss the political and social conditions that lead to the war, the motivations behind Douglas's writing, and the potential real-world implications of ongoing political divisiveness. Douglas believes the political temperature in the U.S. makes it possible for civil war to return unless steps are taken to cool things down.

    The conversation also touches on Douglas's previous work, 'The Death and Resurrection of Baseball,' (https://amzn.to/4fK5slI) and explores how both novels connect.

    They delve into the role of extreme ideologies, the importance of dialogue across political divides, and the hope for preventing such a dire future scenario.
