About once a year, we get a visit from the master himself, the great Thomas Sowell. This year's session is on the occasion of the publication of his new book, Charter Schools And Their Enemies and more importantly, his 90th(!) birthday on June 30th. We talk about the success of charter schools despite the teacher's union and America's worst mayor doing everything they can to undermine them. Then Ricochet's Senior Supreme Court and Legal Analyst John Yoo joins to break down last week's curious DACA and Bostock decisions. Finally, some thoughts on statues.
We're off next week for the holiday. Stay safe everyone!

Only a few seconds in, but I am delighted to learn that Dr. Sowell and my late father were born on the same day.
