Border Crisis, Woke Racism, Assault Weapons Redux, and Filibuster Omens

March 24, 2021

Independent Outlook is the regular round-table conversation from the Independent Institute that provides timely insights and cutting-edge commentary on the most pressing issues of the day. It features Independent’s David J. Theroux (Founder and President), Dr. Williamson M. Evers (Senior Fellow), and Dr. Graham H. Walker (Executive Director), as well as occasional additional Independent Institute fellows.

In this sixteenth episode of Independent Outlook, David Theroux, Williamson Evers, and Graham Walker examine immigration, the unprecedented border crisis and the welfare state; the filibuster and the new threats to liberty; mass shootings and the attacks on the Second Amendment right to self-defense; woke racism/supremacy and critical race theory; the "For the People Act" (H.R. 1) partisan power grab; and much more.
