Season 1: Episode 21 - Robert Putnam: Your kids? My kids? Who are 'our kids?'
"Our Kids: The American Dream in Crisis" by Robert Putnam (2015) (http://bit.ly/3pj7hKV)
"This is not the first time in our national history that widening socioeconomic gaps have threatened our economy, our democracy, and our values. The specific responses we have pursued to successfully overcome these challenges and restore opportunity have varied in detail, but underlying them all was a commitment to invest in other people’s children. And underlying that commitment was a deeper sense that those kids, too, were our kids" (p. 261).
