The 1619 Project Myth
The 1619 Project was riddled with partisan hysteria, sloppy “scholarship,” blatant errors of fact and interpretation, and, above all else, an anti-capitalist ideological agenda to make the case for tearing down our free market economy. Worse still, its transformation from intellectual debate to political dogma poisoned discourse on the right and the left. Angry Twitter mobs canceled and called for the censoring of all critics. Civil discourse and rational thinking became almost impossible.

Book Cover - Legacy of Hope
Legacy of Hope
While countless tales have been told of World War II’s horrors and heroes, “Legacy of Hope” offers a fresh and deeply moving perspective. This book narrates the heroic acts of an orthodox priest and a humble rabbi in Bulgaria, whose unwavering courage and selflessness saved countless lives. Through a blend of historical facts and personal narratives, “Legacy of Hope” not only honors these unsung heroes but also sheds light on the power of human spirit and the indomitable will to do good in the face of evil.
