Star Parker's deeply personal devotion to healing America and empowering disadvantaged communities was inspired by her experiences with government, from disempowering reliance on social programs to Washington activism geared toward extending economic opportunity and the chance to succeed to all. This book is a collection of Star’s columns on economics, culture, politics and race. She explains why freedom and personal responsibility must always go hand in hand, and why private ownership and opportunity—not more government programs—create the surest paths to success for all who seek their American dream. In this collection of columns spanning four years (2019-2023), Parker offers a frank look at what’s really ailing this country—and what we can do to cure it.
