America: A Whole Story with Josh Reeves

History is not only a likely story about the past. It is the method by which we continue to learn and reveal how we got to where we are and when properly understood, gives us wisdom for where we are going. From our founding fathers to working mothers, civil servants to civil rights activists, natives whose ancestors lived on this land for generations to newly arriving immigrants—how we view our country may be very different based on our own points of view. But there is also a story of our wholeness, born in our inception, strained through racism and injustice, strengthened through sacrifice and bravery, and practiced in the daily lives of so many everyday Americans. America needs constant scrutiny but it also requires a “whole story” to realize the prayer at the heart of our union for liberty, peace, and justice for all.
