The Classroom
Welcome to the Class. Here, we'll explore some of the most influential/classical books and documents ever written on political philosophy, Religion, Literature, and more. Most importantly, we will try to understand their modern relevance.
This podcast serves two primary purposes, which I'd like to refer to as my "dual motivations." Firstly, it fulfills a personal and somewhat self-serving objective: to archive all the valuable insights and teachings I've received from my professor Ron Cline.
Secondly, I aim to safeguard Professor Ron's wisdom for not only my benefit but also for yours and that of future generations. The core concept involves creating an avenue for revisiting and absorbing his profound guidance whenever the need arises.
It's worth noting that this intention extends beyond Professor Ron's contributions; I am committed to earnestly preserving the teachings of any guest/educators who will appear on the podcast.
Yours, student

Common Sense (1776) - Thomas Paine
In January 1776 Thomas Paine anonymously released a pamphlet called common sense. Common sense was a radical and impassioned call for America to free itself from British rule and to set up an independent republican government. Paine's pamphlet was in plain language and it spoke directly to the common people and mass audience in the American colonies.
In this episode Professor Ron Cline and Erick Nganyange are discussing common sense pamphlet and the life of Thomas Paine.
Thank you for listening.
