Climbing The Mountain

Qi Gong is more than practicing for health and Martial Arts is more than self-defense. They engage deeper aspects of our lives and when combined make a practice called Wu Gong. Wu Gong is the study of philosophy, medicine, self-defense, spiritual growth, virtue and science and how to make it part of our daily lives. The first step into this world is to start practicing the simple movements of Qi Gong to calm the mind, bring health to your mind and body, and find peace within. Even after a little practice, the beauty of life shines brilliantly.

Today we tend to think the purpose of the Fourteenth Amendment was to protect persons of color. But the Republicans engaged in Reconstruction saw its purpose as preventing “rebel rule” by punishing treason and rewarding loyalty, particularly the loyalty of white men who remained faithful to the Union during the Civil War. In this first of three plan...

Against Constitutional Originalism

  • Categories: Law

A detailed and compelling examination of how the legal theory of originalism ignores and distorts the very constitutional history from which it derives interpretive authority “What are the chances that, in 2024, a new book could fundamentally reorient how we understand America’s founding?
