The American Mind’s Weekly Digest ANNOUNCEMENT - CONFERENCE ON NATIONAL CONSERVATISM Dear Claremont family, This coming October 31 – November 2, 2021, I will be speaking at the Edmund Burke Foundation’s second Conference on National Conservatism. Joining me on the speaker’s dais in sunny Orlando, Florida will be Chairman of the Claremont Institute Tom Klingenstein, Vice President of Education and founding editor of The American Mind, Matt Peterson, along with our Center for the American Way of Life Fellows Scott Yenor, Joshua Mitchell, and David P. Goldman—along with a handful of former Claremont Fellows. Suffice to say, our organization is well and ably represented! I encourage you to register for this event where some of the brightest, most energetic figures on the right—keynote speakers Sen. Hawley, Peter Thiel, Sen. Rubio, and J.D. Vance among them—will be discussing “the best path forward for a democratic world confronted by a rising China abroad and a powerful new Marxism at home.” Sincerely Ryan P.

Read THE 'ROUNDTABLE' EPISODE #85 Dark Gods ‌ After a week off due to technical issues, the editors are back in the saddle. The woke Left is becoming ever more open about the religious nature of its commitment to abortion—they even sought out an oddly fitting alliance with the literal Satanic Temple. From Texas’s new abortion law to George Floyd murals in Afghanistan, the question is increasingly one of whose gods will survive the digital age. Listen TELL ME WHAT YOU REALLY THINK Chinese Civilization in the Digital Age ft. James Poulos ‌ In this week’s edition of TMWYRT, Spencer sits down with James Poulos to discuss China’s new efforts at a revival amidst the Digital Age.
