Class 13: What Is The John Birch Society?
This final class introduces the mission and structure of The John Birch Society. It begins with the story of John Birch, the Christian missionary and first American martyr of the Cold War, and explains the JBS’s mission: less government, more responsibility, and — with God’s help — a better world. It highlights the Society’s nonpartisan, educational, and action-based structure; its grassroots chapters; its agenda for resisting globalism; and tools such as the JBS Bulletin, legislative alerts, Freedom Index, Congressional and Legislative Scorecards, Insider Report, and The New American magazine. This class equips participants to see the JBS not merely as an organization, but as the quintessential vehicle for restoring the Republic.
