  7. What We Call America

    JAN 19

    What We Call America

    In this first episode of A Little Something, we pause to reflect on a simple but powerful question: What do we call America—and what do we mean when we say it? This conversation adds logic and heart to today’s climate, honors the lived experiences that shape our nation, and reflects on the 250-year journey of the United States of America. We acknowledge service, memory, and meaning, while making room for thoughtful reflection rather than division. The episode also opens the door to creativity and listening—because understanding begins when we slow down enough to hear one another. This is not a debate. It’s a moment to think, remember, and reflect. Hosted by Jeannie E. Belgrave
