The Palm Beach Freedom Institute serves the world’s most exciting and fastest growing metropolitan area by engaging unapologetically with controversial ideas and subjects across the spectrum of our society. Our efforts will include:
- Regular seminars featuring dynamic specialists from our community and around the world in dialogue with our friends and supporters as well as our enemies and opponents
- Social occasions for free and open discussion, set within the beautiful and stimulating landscape of Palm Beach
- Events promoting a better understanding of our nation’s cultural heritage for the benefit of our society today
- Ventures to ensure the free circulation of ideas, unrestrained by “political correctness” or the impositions of “wokeness” and “cancel culture”
- Legal assistance to individuals facing violations of their rights of free expression and other civil liberties
- Scholarships for individuals studying now disfavored subjects essential to understanding our nation’s heritage and founding principles
- Courses on topics ignored or marginalized by our troubled and increasingly deficient system of higher education
- Curated travel to sites of importance for understanding our Western inheritance
The Palm Beach Freedom Institute stands in proud opposition to this ugly and unhealthy trend in our society and seeks to promote the vigorous defense of civil rights and civil liberties, which are essential and undeniable features of our American heritage. By rejecting “wokeness” and “cancel culture,” we uphold freedom of expression, freedom of thought, and freedom of inquiry for ourselves and future generations, and we do it with style!
