This is the Jimmy Carter piece you want to read today. @hcrichardson.bsky.social has a full look at the former President from his humble beginnings to his remarkable post-White House work on democracy & human rights. open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

In his Farewell Address on January 14, 1981, President Jimmy Carter worried about the direction of the country. He noted that the American people had begun to lose faith in the government’s ability to deal with problems and were turning to “single-issue groups and special interest organizations to ensure that whatever else happens, our own personal views and our own private interests are protected.” This focus on individualism, he warned, distorts the nation’s purpose because “the national interest is not always the sum of all our single or special interests. We are all Americans together, and we must not forget that the common good is our common interest and our individual responsibility.”

Carter urged Americans to protect our “most precious possessions: the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the land which sustains us,” and to advance the basic human rights that had, after all, “invented America.” “Our common vision of a free and just society,” he said, “is our greatest source of cohesion at home and strength abroad, greater even than the bounty of our material blessings.”

I wrote a review of A COMPLETE UNKNOWN: the brand new Bob Dylan bio pic. And I guarantee you it is totally unlike any other critique of the film that you are ever going to run in to. merrillmarkoe.substack.com/p/a-complete...

Jimmy Carter Appreciation 🧵: As we mourn Carter's death, there will be lots of discussion of his presidency and his post-presidential exploits, including his work with @habitatforhumanity.bsky.social and the @cartercenter.bsky.social. But I want to talk about Carter and the federal judiciary....
