Friend of Liberty,
I have a special gift for you—a set of unique notecards featuring pictures of
the “Liberty Walk” statues found on the Hillsdale College campus.
These beautiful cards include George Washington and Thomas Jefferson … Abraham
Lincoln and Frederick Douglass … Winston Churchill, Margaret Thatcher, and
Ronald Reagan.
All of these statues stand proudly on Hillsdale’s Michigan campus—one of the
only institutions of higher learning that refuses EVERY PENNY of government
funding, even indirectly in the form of federal or state student grants and
loans.

Let the cards serve as a reminder to you of the vigilance and commitment
needed to defend liberty—especially right now, a critical time for our country.
Sadly, several recent polls and events around the country show that increasing
numbers of young Americans are being drawn to socialism and other ideas
destructive of liberty.
And the unrest in communities nationwide, where statues of our Founding
Fathers are being vandalized or torn down, is another symptom of this
underlying disease.
What explains this development? As an educator and president of Hillsdale,
I’ve been thinking about this for a long time. Here’s one primary reason…
For decades, the “progressive” leftist academics who became dominant in most
of America’s colleges and universities after the 1960s have been teaching a
biased and distorted view of American history.
The New York Times’ recent “1619 Project” is a prime example.
According to the “1619 Project,” the key to understanding America is not
freedom, but slavery—and the Project’s main goal is to inject this false
teaching into the curricula of America’s K–12 schools.
Imagine young minds in classrooms all over American learning this. Does it
make you as concerned as it does me?
And given this trend in American education, is it any wonder that our young
people feel less of a patriotic attachment to our nation and are increasingly
attracted—out of ignorance—to failed ideas such as socialism, ideas that are
destructive of liberty?
Another sign of the “progressive” Left’s influence is the continuing attempt
to erase our American heritage by destroying monuments, renaming schools and
streets, and censoring works of literature in the name of “political
correctness.”
The Left knows that it cannot remake society according to its ever-evolving
idea of “progress” until it has “canceled” patriotism and hollowed out the idea
that we should be grateful for our blessings to the great men and women of the
past—many of whom are depicted on the cards I’d like to send you.
This is why we are engaging the Left on the battlefield of education … and why
your generous support is needed right away.
After all, those on the Left are extremely well-funded, thanks to liberal
billionaires like George Soros and his ilk.
With the support of citizens like you—citizens who understand the importance
of education to liberty—we are ramping up its outreach efforts on behalf of
liberty, especially to our nation’s youth.
It is even more urgent that we do so in the face of efforts such as The New
York Times’ “1619 Project” that undermine patriotism and lead to an increased
pull toward socialism.
Hillsdale is the only educational institution in America that is reaching and
teaching millions of citizens of all ages, from coast to coast, about America’s
great heritage of liberty.
Your generous support today will...
* Expand the circulation of Imprimis, Hillsdale’s digest of liberty, to reach
millions more Americans (you can also receive a free subscription ofImprimis
…for life).
* Send millions of pocket-size copies of America’s founding documents to
schools across America, and to members of our armed forces, who have sworn to
defend the Constitution.
* Increase the number of citizens (especially younger Americans) enrolling in
Hillsdale’s free online courses such as “Constitution 101” and “The Great
American Story: A Land of Hope.”
* Launch and support more and more Hillsdale-affiliated classical K-12
charter schools nationwide, returning excellence to American K-12 education and
impacting thousands of our youngest citizens.
One other thing you should be aware of…
As I mentioned, to maintain our independence, we do all of this
liberty-defending work while refusing EVERY PENNY of government funding—even
indirectly in the form of federal or state student grants and loans. NOT. ONE.
PENNY.
So, your support is even more crucial to ensuring that future generations of
Americans will be educated in American civics and prepared to defend freedom.
With a gift of $17.76 or more today to support educational outreach efforts
that reach and teach millions, Hillsdale will send you a special notecard set
featuring the statues on our “Liberty Walk.” The cards are a thank you for your
support.
Supplies are limited, so please make your best tax-deductible gift right away.

After receiving your notecards, I hope you’ll send one to a young person you
know, encouraging them to learn more about the Constitution and American
history. You can even recommend that they take advantage of Hillsdale’s many
free educational resources.
The Left is going all out, as illustrated by The New York Times’ “1619
Project.” It is urgent that we engage forcefully on the battlefield of
education … which is why your support is needed today.
Because as always, our only sure defense is an educated citizenry prepared to
defend liberty—no matter the cost.
