A Nuanced Pitch on Slavery That Nonetheless Destroys the 1619 Project
Not that a broad audience is capable of hearing a nuanced and multi-faceted argument on the nature of slavery in the Antebellum South, but maybe my audience is? Fingers-crossed? Unfortunately, the New York Times Magazine’s 1619 Project and poor historians of “new capitalism” have only added to the singular note of confusion that reigns today. Want…

Birzer, Woods, Richied… Great Historians Think Alike on Early Republic
In case you thought my analysis of the Early American Republic was too “unique” even for me, listen here to historians Brad Birzer and Tom Woods present a very Richied-esque take on American history.

Who’s Moses? (WTF!)
WSJ Piece on Paglia Camille Paglia’s plight is not her own; a great multitude shares in it, and I’m one of them. Sure, not the self-admitted gender dysphoria (then again, did I like The Greatest Showman just a little TOO much?), but rather her experience and diagnosis of the modern student.
