Russell Kirk’s 1953 book The Conservative Mind gave American conservatives an identity and a genealogy and catalyzed the postwar conservative movement.
Very grateful to have been awarded one of this year's Richard D. McLellan Prizes. The @KirkCenter's support for my historical work on First Amendment litigation, as well the scholarship of the other honorees, including Eugene Volokh (@HooverInst), is invaluable.
Don't miss meeting and hearing from our new Free Speech Fellows in person! Along with special guests on November 19 at the National Press Club.
