MLK's Call to Conservatives
We build on Part I in order to make the following argument: Dr. King’s message to moderates in 1963 defines a path between extremes that those who consider themselves moderates or conservatives today, in 2025, desperately need to hear. This new path for conservatives consists of three key elements: First, a commitment to Christian faith and a faith in America; Second, a real concern for justice; and Third, a commitment to the practices of observation and empathy.Intro/Outro attribution: David Bowman, “Se fue del Tiempo,” WikiCommonsRoosevelt, Theodore, and Theodore Roosevelt Association Collection.

American Pragmatism and Political Economy
Final part of our series on theories of political economy. This is a bit of a “cheat,” since pragmatism isn’t a popular theory of political economy, but I make an argument that it gives a name to a space where the vast majority of Americans locate themselves—between more radical ideologies, but resonating with at least some of the societal critiques from more radical voices.
