#33 The Pilgrims

The Year 1620 teaches us a lot about how we need to act in 2020. Using the Pilgrims' experience, we are reminded of several important emergency management principles.

Between the Supreme Court ruling siding with religious groups and economic pain, we have a lot to be reminded of from our 'Pilgrim Fathers.' They faced disease, death, food scarcity, and religious persecutions... but they made it through. The Mayflower Compact and the emergency response collaboration had a major part to do with that. John Scardena, our host, talks lessons learned and how they can be applied in today's world. Here's a hint: More gratitude.
