In this powerful presentation, George Harbison chronicles the horrifying toll of death and destruction inflicted on the world by socialist regimes in the 20th century, focusing primarily on Russia (USSR), China, and Cambodia. Through narrative, images, and music, Harbison weaves together a devastating indictment of the ideology that has left every country in which it has been tried in ruins. In meticulous fashion, he documents socialism’s 20th century death count, which, according to “The Black Book of Communism”, totaled 94 million. Beyond this searing indictment, Harbison frames the topic of socialism by explaining what it actually is and, just as importantly, what it is not, cutting through the false narratives put forth in academia, the media, and in popular culture.

Harbison then brings the discussion forward to present day America as he demonstrates how socialism has been creeping more and more into American life over the past several decades.

The lecture concludes with a call to action, fashioned as a response to clear thinkers who ask: “what can we do to fight back?”.

Continuing with the pursuit of teaching the next generation of American Leaders, the Institute for Faith & Freedom hosts a quarterly luncheon program: Foundations of American Leadership Series. These talks, held at the Pittsburgh Marriott North, Cranberry Twp., PA, highlight some of the most important American leaders throughout our nation’s storied history. Talks have ranged from Benjamin Franklin to Whittaker Chambers and from Bill Clinton to James Madison. These talks provide a valuable forum for the Institute for Faith & Freedom to discuss important figures that stood for the same principles that the Institute seeks to espouse. The series has drawn hundreds of guests and features prominent scholars and thought leaders from across the country. At the Institute for Faith & Freedom, we view a love for truth and a love for liberty as inseparable allies. Liberty cannot long flourish in the absence of truth, and truth is not affirmed where liberty denied. In fact, America’s extraordinary achievement lies in the essential combination of both truth and liberty. Providing the popular Foundations of American Leadership Series fosters an environment for the study of liberty and truth in the lives of historic figures. Please consider joining us for our next Foundations of American Leadership Series. And we invite you to browse our archives of past lectures as well.
