Dispirited by Extremes

So happy to hear about this organization and Monica Harris’ leadership of it. I too am a moderate who is dispirited by the extremes of our particular historical moment. I would love to contribute to the cause of rebuilding (or simply revitalizing) the vital center. I will check FAIR’s website to see how I could be involved.

I am a professor of American History at Pepperdine University. At Princeton I took classes from both Robert George and Cornel West, James McPherson and Nell Painter. Now I teach classes on both the American Revolution (supposedly conservative) and Slavery, Resistance, and Abolition (supposedly progressive). America is both and so am I.
