Volume 4, Issue 11 | August 2023

"War is the extreme expression of division between people… but people are beguiled into this catastrophic trap by countless tiny steps of division. It begins way back in the virtuous little dissociations of oneself from the weaknesses that are all too evident in one’s neighbor." ― Philip Britts, Water at the Roots: Poems and Insights of a Visionary Farmer

In this Issue... 

In our August 2023 issue, we start by highlighting the first group of our 2023 candidates. Ryan opines on the summertime and the Liberty candidates, and then we introduce you to five Libertarians running for local office in North Carolina who need your support. 

Communications Director Rob Yates finishes his reflection on a year in the role. Joshua Glawson looks at some of the biggest areas of concern in NC and offers Libertarian solutions. Mike Ross ruminates on the recent Gubernatorial debate between him and Shannon Bray, and Thomas Hill shares his experience at an event in South Carolina feeding the hungry. Brunswick Chair Jennifer Bias tells us about a beach affiliate, Justin Hinckley exposes more anti-2A tyranny and puts out a call to action, and we spotlight a ranked choice voting event later this month.
