** IN CASE YOU MISSED IT
Lincoln, the Founders, and
------------------------------------------------------------
an America Worth Saving
Featuring Professor Lucas E. Morel
from Washington and Lee University
[link removed]
How can our knowledge of Lincoln and the founders help us in this age of political polarization?

On Tuesday, March 30, the Jack Miller Center hosted an engaging conversation with political theorist and Lincoln expert Lucas E. Morel ([link removed]) (Washington and Lee University) on how Lincoln preserved the Union by drawing from the Founders' guiding principles.
Professor Morel's reflections help us understand Lincoln's presidency, American founding principles, and how to teach students about America's complex and complicated past.

"And so in the middle of a fratricidal war, Lincoln believed that only by returning to the original intentions of the founders, could Americans recover their unified purpose as a free people."

The battle for the soul of our nation will be won or lost in our classrooms.™ —Jack Miller

JMC is proud of our success so far in educating students about our founding principles and history. But there is still much work to be done.

At this moment, schools 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.

Consider a tax-deductible ([link removed]) 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.

We cannot win this battle without your support. Will you join us in the effort?
