Rose Lane Says: Thoughts on Race, Liberty, and Equality, 1942-1945
The wartime newspaper columns of a founding libertarian who wrote about race when few on her side did.
Rose Wilder Lane, one of the women credited with launching American libertarianism, wrote these short pieces between 1942 and 1945 on race, liberty and equality. Edited by David T. Beito and Marcus Witcher, they recover a strand of the tradition that argued against segregation on its own principles, and read as a corrective to some of what followed.
