I thought I would give you an update on recent and upcoming activities here at FFF:
1. On Saturday, October 10, I am speaking at a conference on U.S. foreign policy at Texas Christian University in Ft. Worth sponsored by The Texas Millennial Institute, an organization of young libertarians in Texas. It promises to be a fantastic conference. It certainly couldn’t be more timely, given the ongoing chaos and fiascoes that U.S. empire and interventionism have brought to the Middle East, Afghanistan, and Ukraine as well as the ongoing militarism and infringements on civil liberties that now characterize the United States. Other speakers are Ted Galen Carpenter (Cato Institute), Angela Keeton (antiwar.com), and Scott Horton (Antiwar Radio). Admission: FREE. For more information:

2. Mark your calendar: Saturday, November 14. You are invited to what might well be the most meaningful conference in the 25-year history of The Future of Freedom Foundation. We are hosting a conference entitled “The Drug War Against Black America” at Morgan State University in Baltimore, one of the highest ranking colleges in America with predominantly African-American students. The drug war has adversely affected everyone’s lives but its adverse effects have clearly fallen disproportionately on blacks. Our speakers are: Radley Balko (Washington Post), Kassandra Frederique (Drug Policy Alliance), Seema Sadanandan (ACLU), and Neill Franklin (Law Enforcement Against Prohibition). Admission: FREE, including free box lunch. The public is invited but space is limited. Register here: www.fff-morganstate.eventbrite.com

(a) Our newest ebook, Freedom and Security: The Second Amendment and The Right to Keep and Bear Arms by Scott McPherson is ranked #195 on Amazon’s Kindle list of nonfiction books focusing on Political Freedom. It is definitely one of the best books you’ll ever read on gun rights and the Second Amendment.

(b) Regime Change: The JFK Assassination by Jacob G. Hornberger is ranked #48 in the Kindle Store’s top 100 best-sellers for 20th-century American history.
Here are a few recent comments posted at Amazon:
“Regime Change book is magnificent. Concise in Hemmingwayesque prose, authoritative in clear factual detail. It is the best primer on the subject.”
“Every American should read it. It was very informative.”
“Jacob Hornberger methodically takes you step-by-step through the evidence, opportunity, and the motive. Uh, yep, the most logical reason for JFK being taken out was our own government’s security organs putting a ‘hit’ on him. Great read.”
“A must read.”
“Considering all that has been written on this topic, it was a surprise to find a lot of “stuff” that was new to me. The author did an excellent job of tying together numerous aspects that are well known, i.e., Officer Tibet, the magic bullet, autopsy discrepancies, the two caskets, etc. A very interesting read.”
“I enjoyed reading this book.”

(c) The Kennedy Autopsy by Jacob Hornberger is #54 on Amazon’s list of best-selling Kindle books for 20th-century American history. It’s been on that list all year long. It has now received 136 comments. Here are some of the recent ones:
“Very interesting. Yes, if you have any interest in the Kennedy assassination and the things that were not really public at the time, then read this one. Amazing, and convoluted string of facts hidden until now.”
“Well written with tons of interesting information.”
“Stunning! I have always been a conspiracy fan. Together with other books written by people who were in the emergency room in Dallas, I am more convinced than ever that Oswald was, indeed.a ‘patsy.’”
“Believable. Found it to be true to others I have read. Makes much more sense then the WC view.”
“I found this book to be very credible and written well. Also the style of writing was easy to understand. There was an abundance of bibliography references to verify his information. Also the style of writing was easy to understand.”
“Very interesting read. Facts never heard before. If you are a conspiracy theorist, as am I, you’ll read this in one setting.”
“Oh what an eye opener. What a shame that any body would be treated this way let alone the President of such a powerful country. Such a coverup”
NOTE: The Kennedy Autopsy is now available as an audio book on Amazon.

(c) JFK’s War With the National Security Establishment by Douglas Horne. It’s #111 in Amazon’s Kindle list of best-selling books on 20th-century American history. Here are some recent comments:
“READ, READ, READ. AWESOME AND EDUCATIONAL. GREAT HISTORICAL RECORD.”
“I found this book to be riveting after just having visited the JFK Museum in Boston. Eye opening! I was in elementary school when JFK was assassinated and it was a good way for me to refresh my memory of a terrible time. Well written.”
“The war Kennedy lost and why. For the most part, very factual and backed up with information from reliable sources.”
“Excellent background info on JFK’ s incredible dealings with the military-industrial complex.”
“Good overall summary and skips the detail of the murder, focusing instead on the motives to kill kennedy. All roads point to cord Meyer, David atlee Philips and Angleton. With help from New Orleans right wing freaks.”
“Short but good book that covers areas outside of just what happened in Dallas. Good political book and not just about conspiracy, a nice mix!”
“this book is a great follow up read to j f k &the unspeakable.as head researcher the author has access to documents that were classified before,thus providing proof of the plots to sabatauge jfk’s plans and later to eliminate kennedy too!a must read for anyone interested in the truthor even just a history lesson for younger readers.”

5. I assume by now that you have seen our music video “Serfdom USA,” which introduces people to Austrian economics through Friedrich Hayek’s book Road to Serfdom. If not, it’s a fun watch. I hope you’ll share it with your friends and family if you have not already done so.
