Remember the post from last summer when we highlighted Timothy Snyder’s book On Tyranny?  He has begun a YouTube series called “Timothy Snyder Speaks”.  Take a look at episode 7, in which Professor Snyder talks about “The Evil of ‘America First’”.

Prof. Snyder describes the series as informal talks that fall between “the 90 seconds” afforded during a TV interview and a 45 minute class lecture.  Each is a five to fifteen minute treat of a learned person concerned about the current political climate in America.  Agree or disagree, his gentle, almost offhanded style should allow you the opportunity to debate with yourself in an open, civilized manner. While your there, check out other episodes in the series.
