Twenty years ago, Americans witnessed the greatest law enforcement atrocity in modern U.S history. On February 28th, 1993, the ATF raided the Branch Davidian home in Waco, Texas. The stand-off finally ended 51 days later, on April 19th, after the building went up in flames, killing 70 civilians including more than 20 children. Reflections by Independent Institute Research Fellow Anthony Gregory.
Each year the Independent Institute holds two week-long session of its Summer Seminar for Students for high school and college age students. These clips are highlights from our 2012 session for high school students.
Research Fellow Peter J. Boettke gives a talk based on the triple meaning of the title of his new book, Living Economics: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow, at the Univeridad Francisco Marroquin.
This presentation is from our 2011 Challenge of Liberty Summer Seminar for college students, which was held from August 1 to 5, 2011, at Notre Dame de Namur University, Belmont, California.
