Objectivism is a philosophy for freedom and flourishing. It posits that you must value yourself in order to value living in a free society.

In Return of the Primitive: The Anti-Industrial Revolution, Ayn Rand says, “Self-esteem is reliance on one’s power to think. It cannot be replaced by one’s power to deceive. The self-confidence of a scientist and the self-confidence of a con man are not interchangeable states, and do not come from the same psychological universe. The success of a man who deals with reality augments his self-confidence. The success of a con man augments his panic.”

Objective Standard Institute Fellow Kiyah Willis and IEA Communications Officer Reem Ibrahim will discuss why these ideas matter in the era of identity politics and nanny statism.
