Do We Have More in Common Than What Divides Us? A Deep South Journey Challenges This Notion

from 2 Men In Black and White: An Honest Conversation · host Mark Hayes and Brock Ganeles

Kamala Harris loved the "we have more in common than what divides us" line on the campaign trail. Brock questioned it then and really questions it now as he embarks on a Deep South journey. The overt religiosity of the South is striking to a Northerner. The Trump billboards and "Super stores" where people buy Trump-adorned merchandise seems bizarre. The lack pf integration between White and Black people in the cities visited is glaringly obvious. The Right-wing news is everywhere. The people seem nice and friendly. The food is great. But it feels like a different culture. The South could be another country, albeit with the same language. The question is whether American ideals and belief in democracy binds us together North and South, Conservative and Liberal. Brock is skeptical as he travels to Mississippi, home of the Ole Miss Rebels. What were they rebelling against? Oh yeah. Me. The Northerners.
