American Mosaic

American Mosaic is weekly half-hour radio program featuring stories by
men and women from all walks of life and all regions of the country,
reading their own stories. Farmers and ranchers, commercial fishermen
and towboat captains. The homeless. People living in small towns and
great cities.

THE NEED:

Our nation is fragmenting. We are no longer the country whose motto was
“E Pluribus Unum”—“Out of Many, One.” We are now a plurality and our
political and religious divisions may seem unbridgeable. It is
imperative that we see the humanity of the person across the street,
across the state, across the nation. Without that, the American future
becomes ever more insecure.

THE IMPACT:

When we hear the voices of men and women, speaking in their regional
accents or dialects, telling us of their work, their families, their
failures and successes, we can identify with them. We need that
identification. This is what American Mosaic provides.
