Is the Rainbow flag the Official Flag of Left-Wing Christendom

Published June 29, 2019 | By Hal Shurtleff

Camp Constitution has a pending lawsuit against the City of Boston for denying us a permit to fly the Christian flag on a public access flagpole at City Hall Plaza.  The City gladly raises the Rainbow flag on City Hall Plaza and pastes its main library with Rainbow flags.  Last year, I visited a number of left-wing churches  to make the case that the Rainbow flag is the official flag of left-wing Christendom.

Pro-Life Rally and Press Conference at the Massachusetts State House

Published June 6, 2019 | By Hal Shurtleff

     Camp Constitution Media attended today’s  Pro-Life Rally and Press Conference at the Massachusetts State House.

The Susan B. Anthony List, Renew Massachusetts Coalition, Massachusetts Family Institute and other pro-life individuals and organizations held a press conference today  Wednesday June 5, 2019 at the Massachusetts State House  to announce the results of a recent poll regarding the provisions of the Roe Act Infanticide Bill.  Participants included Sue Swayze Liebel, State Policy Director, Susan B. Anthony List, Andrew Beckwith, Massachusetts Family Institute,  Debby Dugan, Renew Massachusetts Coalition, Myrna Maloney Flynn, Massachusetts Citizens for Life, Abigail Young, Students for Life, and Bernadette and Jim Lyons

The event was in opposition to the  Roe Act (SB 1209 and HB 3320)  which would radically expand abortion in Massachusetts by eliminating parental consent for underage girls to get an abortion, removing any quantifiable or meaningful justification for a late term abortion (after 24 weeks), and removing the provision that requires a baby born alive receive life-saving care. Recent polling conducted by Susan B Anthony list demonstrates that Massachusetts voters do not support this dramatic expansion of abortion and oppose the specific policy changes proposed by the Roe Act.

 

The Weekly Sam: Four Years Ago Today We Lost a Giant But His Work Lives On

Published June 2, 2019 | By Hal Shurtleff

 

Four years ago today, I lost a dear friend, and the world lost one of the pioneers in the modern homeschool movement, and one of the first to have the courage to expose the “Education Mafia.”  Sam Blumenfeld was born May 31, 1926 and, died a day after his 89th birthday June 1, 2015.   About 20 years ago, Sam told me that he would work until he dropped.  He was true to his word, giving and selling copies of his last book Crimes of the Educators which he co-authored with Alex Newman on his deathbed.  I last saw Sam five days before he passed with Alex Newman who was meeting Sam in person for the first time.    I  pledged to Sam that we at Camp Constitution would ensure that his work would  people for years to come.

Sam left  his library, and papers to me. and with the help of Bill McNally, founder of the Sam Blumenfeld Literacy Foundation, Mark Affleck, our camp newspaper editor, and our webmaster Eric Conover, the Sam Blumenfeld Archives was created.  Since its debut in late 2015, the archives have been visited by thousands of people around the world.  Last year, the archives had close to two million views, and over 100,000 downloads.  We encourage readers to help promote Sam’s work by sharing the archives, and donating to Camp Constitution which will enable us to maintain and expand the archive. https://campconstitution.net/sam-blumenfeld-archive/         Donations can be made via our PayPal account accessed from our website’s homepage https://www.campconstitution.net

Sam asked me to host a luncheon when Alex Newman was in town.  Here is a link to that event that took place a few days before his passing:

 

 

Alex Newman’s “Rescue the Children” National Speaking Tour

Published May 24, 2019 | By Hal Shurtleff

There is a reason the Deep State globalists sound so confident about the success of their agenda — they have a secret weapon: More than 85 percent of American children are being indoctrinated by radicalized government schools. In this explosive talk, Alex Newman exposes the insanity that has taken over the public school system. From the sexualization of children and the reshaping of values to deliberate dumbing down, Alex shows how dangerous this threat is — not just to our children, but also to the future of faith, family, and freedom  and what every American can do about it.

Alex has a B.S. degree in journalism from the University of Florida with an emphasis on economics
and international relations, as well as an A.A. degree in foreign languages from Miami-Dade College. He
is co-author of the book Crimes of the Educators,and currently serves as a foreign correspondent for
The New American magazine and an Advanced Economics teacher at Freedom Project Academy.

Camp Constitution is pleased to announce that we are one of many organizations that will be hosting a speaking engagement for our friend, Alex Newman.  Our event will take place Tuesday June 11–6:30 PM at Fucilli’s Cafe 107 Main St Reading, MA.  Price $30 which includes a full meal.  Seating is limited.  RSVPs required.  Please call (857)-498-1309.   Here is a list of the reaming tour dates with contact info:
