Patriot Church Radio

Pastor John Vacchiano welcomes KCarl Smith, author of Douglass vs. Marx: The Battle for America’s Soul, back to the studio, joined by Pastor Peter Heilemann. Together, they examine the contrasting ideas of Frederick Douglass and Karl Marx and the very different approaches they took toward freedom, government, individual responsibility, and human dignity. Smith’s book presents a source-based dialogue between the two historical figures, drawing from their writings and ideas.
 
The conversation explores the historical and philosophical differences between Douglass and Marx and considers how those competing worldviews continue to influence discussions about America, education, faith, and liberty today while warning us of the dangers of Marxist beliefs.
