The Freedom to Move
By Mollie Engelhart
Epoch Times, |Updated:
One of my favorite parts of hosting the Brownstone Institute supper club at Sovereignty Ranch is choosing the speakers.
Brownstone isn’t about filling auditoriums. Most of the people who join us have spoken to audiences much larger than ours. The point is something different.
Once a month, people who care deeply about the future gather around a dinner table to share a meal and have the kinds of conversations that seem increasingly rare. In a world where so much of our interaction happens through screens, there is something powerful about sitting face to face with people willing to wrestle with difficult ideas.
Last Friday’s gathering was even more intimate than usual. Between the recent Hill Country floods and the middle of summer, attendance was lighter than normal. I couldn’t help wishing more people had been there.
Our speaker was Terri Hall.
Most Texans know Hall as the founder of Texans Uniting for Reform and Freedom (TURF), where she has spent more than two decades fighting toll roads, defending property rights, and following transportation legislation that most of us never even realize exists.
More recently, she co-founded We the People – Liberty in Action, a Kerr County grassroots organization dedicated to helping citizens stay engaged in local government and defend constitutional liberties.
I know Hall as something else first.
