About this listen

America has been regarded as a grand experiment in self-government. While the Greeks and Romans had failed to achieve this in their day, both societies nevertheless rose above their contemporaries and soared to new heights. So, when it came time for the American founders to try their hand at statecraft, they naturally opted to fuse elements of Greek democracy and Roman republicanism together to forge a new and lasting, American, democratic-republic.

It was long before this experiment was put to the test, when in 1861, a great “civil war” broke out. We’ve been taught to believe that the experiment survived the war - not only did the government graciously preserve liberty, but they’ve been spreading it abroad ever since.

What if this isn’t true? What if liberty and self-government didn’t survive the war? What if all the foreign military aggression ever since has really been an excuse for the victors - an elite cabal of financial interests - to retain and tighten their grip on power?

In this book you’ll find a narrative of American history you’ve likely never heard before: the Truth.

Excellent

Well written. Eye opening, but not shocking! A must read! 15 word minimum is irritating

Lots of truth bombs. Governments breaking laws is very normal. Always refreshing when it is brought to light

Your historical heroes were probably pieces of 💩

There's a lot of history crammed into this concise tome. If you want to understand what happened to America and how we got here, this is a great resource. If you think Abe Lincoln and FDR were great U.S. Presidents, you should definitely read this book. The damage they did to America is irreparable, it's high time we stop romanticizing them.

"People will realize a tyrant has taken hold."

"-It will be unveiled and the people will realize a tyrant has taken hold." - Sal Mayweather (Author)
The author masterfully crafts a novel considering the historical origins, practices, and malfeasances of the democratic/republican state starting from Greek and Roman times to spanning all USA history, and how throughout our history the state has upheld only the direct opposite. In detailing the ideology he exposes the hypocrisy and atrocities of America that will never be taught in our schools as we have become a tool of the state.
The virtual voice wasn't bad after awhile but some words were pronounced in an entirely different accent (He sounded African American), and the overall quality of the voice was subpar in comparison to other AI voices I've heard, He always takes excess time between sections, chapters, and even sentences but it's tolerable for the content.
It is dense and certainty requires a re-read after having learned and read more upon particular subjects in this book.
