Advancing American Freedom (AAF) is proud to host the launch of the insightful new book Gateway to Statesmanship at their office building on March 15 at 10 AM.

This event will feature a dynamic panel discussion with Intercollegiate Studies Institute (ISI) President Johnny Burtka, moderated by AAF Executive Director Paul Teller, delving into the rich tapestry of Statesmanship across history and its relevance today.

Gateway to Statesmanship is a journey through the wisdom of the ages, examining the art and essence of leadership. Compiled by Johnny Burtka, this collection traverses the annals of history, bringing together the thoughts of Xenophon, Aristotle, Cicero, Augustine, and many more.  

In this panel discussion, Johnny Burtka and Paul Teller will explore how the study of Statesmanship extends beyond the realms of politics into the broader scope of human thought and action. They will discuss how the classics teach us the difficult choices that shape lives and character, providing insight into how these teachings are vital today.

Join us for an intellectually stimulating morning. 

Whether you’re a scholar, student, professional, or simply someone with a keen interest in the evolution and impact of leadership, this event promises to deepen your understanding of what it means to be a statesman in historical and contemporary contexts.
