Ep. 2: The American Dream is not the same for everyone

When you hear the words “American Dream,” what comes to mind?

Hosts Rose Scott of WABE in Atlanta and Kavitha George of Alaska Public Media lead the guests on a conversation about the American Dream and what is at stake in November’s election.

This show explores where our definitions of the American Dream come from and what it means to achieve it.
