We’re two retired Americans—Neland Nobel and John Ammon—who launched The Prickly Pear with no journalism background, just a deep belief in truth, liberty, and the power of citizen voices. In under five years, we’ve grown from nothing to over 100,000 monthly readers—all without corporate backing, government funding, or big donors. Just volunteers, grit, and a love for this country.

But now we face a turning point.

THE SHOT HEARD ROUND THE WEB
Those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it. As Cicero said, to be ignorant of what occurred before you were born is to remain always a child, and a nation of children is headed for disaster. We owe it to the Patriots of America’s past to take up their work. In this column, I explore how historical events and figures led up to our own political and cultural situations, and what the great men of history can teach us, as I strive to answer the question, what is truth?
