In his book, 'The Nation That Never Was,' Kermit Roosevelt III argues that we are not the heirs of the Founders, but we can be the heirs of Reconstruction and its vision for equality; America today is not the Founder’s America, but it can be Lincoln’s America. We face a dilemma these days. We want to be honest about our history and the racism and oppression that Americans have both inflicted and endured. But we want to be proud of our country, too. Roosevelt discussed how we can do both those things by realizing we’re not the country we thought we were, opening the door to a new understanding of ourselves and our story.
