I’m excited to announce that there are big changes in the works for RightsAndReason. Over the next few months you will see some small changes on the site here before we unveil a new and much bigger site this fall.

You may have already noticed the new “Contributors” page. Over the next few months we will add a number of additional writers to our staff who bring perspectives on freedom from the throughout the world.

Additionally, we will be expanding RightsAndReason from a print-only site and adding audiovisual media in the form of serial podcasts and, eventually, video presentations.

These initial changes are just the early and small steps that RightsAndReason will be making and there are great things in store as we work to support the restoration and expansion of freedom in the United States and throughout the world.

From the Archives: The indomitable American spirit

This post is from the Archive and was originally posted May 26, 2011. As I was rereading it today, I wanted to share it again. THIS is where RightsAndReason is going and THIS is why we are doing what we are doing. America, and the whole world, faces significant challenges. However, no one is better suited to address them head on than those who still feel the strength of the indomitable American spirit.

I’ve been really hard on Americans recently. I’ve implied or outright stated that Americans are lazy, uneducated, too trusting, compliant, unprincipled and apathetic. I have given a number of reasons of why America is broken. And I’ve pulled no punches. I am calling things like I see them.
