This week, we put our American knowledge to the test by taking the civics portion of the U.S. citizenship exam. With only one-third of Americans able to pass, we wanted to see if we’d make the cut (some of the questions were… humbling). We also discuss the real barriers the two-part test can create for those seeking U.S. citizenship. It’s important to know some things, but the reasons Ben Franklin is famous shouldn’t be at the top of the list.
