Hard copy libraries are a treasure. When you visit most peoples homes, where’s the library? Where are the books? Where is the music?

The Federalist is really missing the boat these days.

Reading Shakespeare's work isn't going to help me learn more about the events leading up to Lexington and Concord. Reading Homer isn't going to help me learn more about the pastors and preachers on the front lines of the cause of Liberty. Reading early historians from the late 1700s to the late 1800s will teach me what America used to be, what it really is, while reading Jane Austen doesn't carry the same necessary knowledge.

I'm sure it needs to be said, these are all in fact great books by great authors. But great books, which ultimately are nothing more than entertainment cannot address one of our greatest weaknesses, which is our knowledge of history.

We don't need more entertainment. We're already entertained to death as it is.

When the great books are canceled, their great thoughts are canceled. That is the object. Same goes for canceling American traditions and demonizing American traditions to justify and replace with critical race theory, formerly known as thought control.

One irritant is improper use of the word “gender”, a term used to describe feminine or masculine nouns, pronouns and the like, but not a person. We fear the word “ sex” now.
