How we tell our national story has always been contentious — but in recent years it has been used across the political spectrum in a larger cultural war that threatens to divide us. Burns’ films and Rubenstein’s Iconic America aim to tell our national story in a way that unites us — even when it means telling hard truths. Interspersed with clips from Iconic America, hear them discuss how history and storytelling can inspire civic engagement, what it means to be a student of history, what they’ve learned about America through their series, stories that didn’t make it onto the screen, and more.
