Very much looking forward to this book launch event @GUConstitution in conversation with @RandyEBarnett. If you are in DC November 19th, mark your calendar!
What if Frederick Douglass anticipated—and challenged—modern originalism?
Join us at Georgetown Law on Nov. 19 for the launch of "Until the Last Yoke Is Broken," featuring Professor Bradley Rebeiro in conversation with our Faculty Director, Professor Randy Barnett.
Rebeiro explores Douglass not merely as an abolitionist, but as a constitutional theorist who combined historical meaning with natural rights to advance a vision of liberty that continues to inform debates over constitutional interpretation.
Event Details:
📅 Thursday, November 19
🕛 12:10–1:10 p.m.
📍 Georgetown Law | McDonough 201
🍖 Complimentary BBQ lunch beginning at 11:45 a.m.
📖 Book signing to follow!
🔗 RSVP here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…
A limited number of complimentary books will be available! Register by Nov. 12 to request your copy. Walk-ins are welcome!

Dysfunction is a disease we gave to ourselves, but it’s also a disease we can cure on our own.

Snapped this unposed photo during the @Hillsdale Collegiate Scholars retreat @KirkCenter this weekend. Yes, they were all reading physical books!
When mechanism and rigidity threaten beauty and complexity: @dr_mcgilchrist’s The Master and His Emissary is as good as advertised so far.

Discussing Paine’s attack on Burke in Rights of Man today—nothing like Paine’s passive-aggressive jabs at Burke: “ ‘the unbought grace of life’ (if anyone knows what it is).”

Delighted with this sharp and generous review from Daniel Johnson in @LawLiberty. "Not only academics but any reader with a serious interest in history and politics are indebted to Skjönsberg for this stupendous work of scholarship." lawliberty.org/book-review/r…
Delicious @ModAgeJournal article on @JamesWilsonInst's @HPArkes_ , my former teacher whose "Political Obligations" class (feat. Lincoln, Hume, Thomas Reid, Kant, Scalia) was one of the best I have ever taken, + who modeled Socratic-style teaching to a T.

"While there are certainly figures associated with variants of liberalism that advance false anthropologies, distorted social outlooks and wrongheaded public policies, these views do not represent the whole of liberalism. Many Enlightenment figures espoused a vision of liberalism that is compatible with traditional Christianity, including economist and philosopher Adam Smith."

Kirk’s The Roots of American Order, @gleaveswhitney writes, “showed how American order . . . grew out of the rich subsoil of four ancient cities: Jerusalem, Athens, Rome, and London.”

My special question concerning Pocock is his (conscious and latent) attitudes towards conservatism. This is Whatmore on the topic: "Toleration was one outcome, making Pocock appear a liberal to some and a conservative to others, an outcome he would have found gratifying."

Is the “first wave” of democratization nothing but a compelling political myth? My review of David Art’s “The Resilience of the Old Regime” @LawLiberty explores this question and more.
