Historian Says 20th Century Holds Lessons; Rover Pipeline Update

Tim Duggan Books
Tim Duggan Books

What can the history lessons from the previous century tell us about our own current times?  A Yale professor has written a book--expanding off his popular post-election Facebook post--that details 20 lessons drawn from Europe's modern political history.  It's not that history repeats so much he says---as it instructs.  We'll talk to Yale Professor, Dr. Tim Snyder, about his book "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century."  He's here with Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur who says our current global challenges require thoughtful discussions about where history has already taken us.   Plus, the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency fines the builder of the Rover Pipeline.  You'll find Tony Ganzer's extended interview with AOL Founder, Steve Case HERE.
