Norman Corwin (1910-2011) was the Grand Master of American Radio Theatre, and his final effort is extraordinarily timely today. In 1941, this program confronted an America more divided, more polarized, than at any time since the Civil War — and this new version, updated for the 21st Century, does the same. This brilliantly fascinating program reminds us to remember what we have in common, where we agree, and how we all still stand together — so we can tone down the anger and deal with our differences without hatred and violence.
