Lessons from the collapse of the Habsburg Empire | Thomas Sowell

Identity politics has become a driving factor on the left, especially in the US. Politicians and Intellectuals are dividing the people based on various identities and pitting them against each other. To see where this road could lead, Thomas Sowell explores the events that unfolded between Germans and Czechs in the 20th century. From the town of Budweis, Bohemia in the Habsburg Empire to the end of World War 2, the story of those two groups should warn Americans of the harms that identity politics can inflict on the fabric of a country.
