What's the Matter with America—and How to Fix It
from Y Magazine · host BYU
The United States of America celebrates its 250th anniversary this year, but “we celebrate under ominous clouds,” says Judge Thomas B. Griffith (ret.) (BA ’78). Yet Griffith is hopeful. “There are green shoots coming up through the tundra,” he says. Join host Whitney Singley Archibald (BA ’01) as she talks with Griffith about the state of the nation, the beauty of the constitution, and the role of latter-day saints in getting America back on track. This episode is connected to the article “Promise and Peril at 250” by Thomas B. Griffith in the Summer 2026 issue of Y Magazine.
