A CALL TO LIBERTY

A new year means a new set of essays, related media, pamphlets, and more on A Call To Liberty! Take a look at our twelve upcoming themes for the 2025.

 A Call to Liberty is a two-year, 24-part series that strives to reawaken interest in and respect for the Declaration of Independence as we approach its 250th anniversary in July of 2026. Every month, Liberty Fund brings you a slate of fresh content that explores questions related to important themes from the Declaration and considers them in relation to our past, our present, and our future.

Check back in on January 6th as we feature a lead essay for our theme on Political Economy written by economic textbook authors Tawni Hunt Ferrarini, M. Scott Niederjohn, Mark C. Schug, and William C. Wood!
