About this listen
In this episode of Roots, Rights & Reason, Lee Smith speaks with Professor Gregory Roper about why the ability to argue well is essential to the survival of a constitutional republic. Drawing on classical rhetoric and the ancient Roman concept of stasis theory, Roper explains how rational debate once shaped civic life—and why modern culture has largely abandoned the discipline of logical argument in favor of emotional manipulation and political tribalism. The conversation explores how education, media, and social platforms have contributed to the decline of meaningful debate, and what it will take to restore the art of persuasion that once sustained the American republic.
