Jennifer Appel, filmmaker, teacher, and activist, joins Deepak Puri, CEO of The Democracy Labs, to discuss the American Dream and the need to provide a more complete and accurate portrayal of the American experience. Jennifer uses storytelling, music, and visuals to give voice to diverse perspectives, including those of Indigenous people and veterans, to rally the country and heal the divisions in American society. She reminds us of the Hopi Indian quote, "The one who tells the story rules the world."
Deepak and Jennifer talk about
- What drives Jennifer to use music and film to inspire change
- What kind of change is needed in this increasingly materialistic society
- The unrealized potential of the American Dream
- The Country Club Culture
- Bruce Springsteen
