E97. Historical Guilt Feb 27, 2025

Show notes

Mark explores a complicated but fascinating concept that permeates the ether of our modern North American societal discourse. Historical Guilt is the feeling of great shame, regret and/or sadness for a historical moment, event, period or something that happened in the past. In other words, the outpouring of sympathy for bygone transgressions that most times don't have anything to do with current generations. Enjoy this ENCORE Presentation!
