I'm thrilled and honored that Heather Cox Richardson is returning to the show today. We spoke once before, the week that her latest book, DEMOCRACY AWAKENING, was released. She's back today because she's one of the voices I hope everyone will hear, and I'm persistent! Her nightly "Letters from an American"- which inform and comfort me - sits atop the most-read list at Substack. Her Facebook live talks are like hearing from an old friend who always knows the right things to say. Heather Cox Richardson is an American historian. She's a history professor at Boston College and author of seven books, in addition to her nightly "Letters". I only wish I'd had a teacher like her. At least we can all learn from her. I do, every day.
