Season 7 of the Givers, Doers, & Thinkers Podcast: America at 250

The seventh season of the Givers, Doers, & Thinkers podcast is here! In this special three-part season, we’ll explore the past, present, and future of American exceptionalism as we approach America’s 250th birthday. 

In this season, we will explore how American civil society came about, what challenges threaten its flourishing, and what the future promises for our great country. 

• In part one of the season, we discuss with leading thinkers the historical, religious, and philosophical origins of America's distinctive civil society.
• In part two, we speak to innovative and generous givers who are keeping the wheels of philanthropy turning and have their fingers on the pulse of charitable innovation. 
• In part three, we talk to the doers leading the formation and growth of some of today's most promising mission-driven enterprises. 

These historians and scholars, nonprofit leaders and innovators, and seasoned philanthropists will shed light on the prominent role philanthropy has played in the 250-year history of American civil society, and what it means for the 250 years ahead.
