The Battle for the Soul of our Nation
Education is crucial to a self-governing nation. Our freedoms rely on each new generation of citizens to understand our country's founding principles—under which we have thrived as free people.
Yet, at this moment, classrooms around the country are banning classic texts, promoting false narratives about America, and disparaging our history or omitting it altogether. Spurring anti-American sentiment among our young people has grave implications for our country.
In the words of our own Jack Miller, “The battle for the soul of our nation will be won or lost in our classrooms.”
That battle is our sole mission. Every student needs to be taught the real story of America—our history, our founding principles, and the fundamental idea in our Declaration, that all men are created equal and are entitled to their life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.
Our history, both failures and triumphs, are the effort to achieve our founding ideals. Our freedoms can only be protected if each generation of citizens carries that understanding forward.
Consider a tax-deductible year-end gift to the Jack Miller Center. Your donation, large or small, is an investment in the future of our country—for you, for your children, for your grandchildren.
