Patriotism Versus Nationalism-A Hunter S. Thompson Discussion

Examine the difference between patriotism and nationalism through the writings and legacy of Hunter S. Thompson. Led by Anita Thompson, this thought-provoking roundtable explores Thompson's views on democracy, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights through discussion and materials from their personal archives, including notes and home videos. Participants will examine how rhetoric, propaganda, and civic engagement shape public discourse while developing tools for thinking critically about the messages we encounter every day.
