One Generation Away: Why Now Is the Time to Restore American Freedom
by Brilyn Hollyhand
When Ronald Reagan warned that freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction, was he pointing to Generation Z?
Today’s young adults have been indoctrinated since preschool in the lie that America is fundamentally unjust. They have watched their parents hand over their freedom to big government, and they themselves are captivated by a deceptive ideology of unprecedented radicalism.
Out of this confused and dispirited generation has risen Brilyn Hollyhand, who offers his peers a prophetic vision of the greatness of America and its heritage. Drawing on the wisdom of the generations that founded, fought for, and preserved this great nation, Hollyhand defies the poisonous anti-Americanism would cheat our youth out of their birthright of freedom.
Hollyhand explains how we got into this mess and presents a plan for turning the tide. Wise beyond his years, he is a happy warrior in the battle of ideas, inspiring his contemporaries and encouraging the older generations.
