In this episode, I interview Georgia native Nicole Elizabeth Williams, who is a public policy professional and former political campaign staffer. She holds two postgraduate degrees from the University of Glasgow in the fields of public policy and political communication and is a 2010 graduate of Tulane University. She previously worked as a staffer for a Member of Parliament in the House of Commons in Great Britain prior to returning to the US. Her primary area of focus is the intersection of Southern colonial history and its effect on contemporary culture with a particular focus on the Scots-Irish.
Williams and I discuss moderns’ disdain for history and heritage, economic progressive nationalism vs traditionalism, the sad state of American conservatism, and the leftist colonization of the South, especially that of Richmond, Virginia – my native home and a place where she once worked for the inept city government.
Mentioned in our conversation are four must-read essays that Williams wrote for the Abbeville Institute: “How to Be a Conservative and the Southern Tradition,” “Rediscovering Heritage,” “What Price Prosperity?” and “The Tragedy of Land Use in the South.”
