Jessica L. begins by providing a short synopsis of the book after which Jessika R. begins the conversation by quoting a passage about the America's strength lying in the character and intelligence of its people. They discuss what it means to be an American and why its important for all Americans to pursue a liberal education as part of their civic responsibility.
