    The Anti-Abortion Right Is Not Into Compromise

    Columnists Froma Harrop - 0

    Getting rid of Roe v. Wade was sold as a sensible and mollifying approach to the abortion controversy. It would let each state ban or codify a right to abortion in accordance with local culture. This assumed that the end of a constitutional right to abortion was the victory after which “pro-life” conservatives could go […]

    A Professor’s Lessons On Democracy

    Columnists Jamie Stiehm - 0

    My ancient history professor, Martin Ostwald, taught me all about Athens in the golden age, the fifth century B.C. – and more. Somehow he circled back to me early in the year 2024 A.D. His seminar of four students met once a week, Thursday afternoons, for time travel that raced like chariots. Famous in his […]
