Substacks recommended by Lukium | The American Manifesto

Recommended by Lukium

The American Pamphleteer publishes opinion, commentary and historically grounded analysis informed by law, politics and the long patterns of American history.

Lady Libertie is not afraid to call them fascist, has great tips on how to get your representatives to read, and I really like the visuals on the articles!

Reframing America

By Antonia

Changing the way the American Left engages in the public debate.

Antonia Scatton has incredibly insightful analysis on the way we use language and the impact that language has on the ongoing narratives that drive our politics. I strongly recommend you read her work especially to ensure you don't incidentally hurt the messages you're trying to deliver.

The Existentialist Republic

By Christopher Armitage

Public Policy and Investigative Journalism

Very few others are speaking to the issue of fascism in a way that is clear about the stakes and what it takes to deal with it. Chris is one of them. If you're looking for another source other than the American Manifesto, he is the place to go.

CounterStory Media

CounterStory Media exists to audit the narrative by giving voice to marginalized people, amplifying their stories, and sharing their truths.

Melissa is diving deep on the Trump 2.0 Executive Orders. Also has great advice for these trying times.

My personal Substack

BDD is not afraid to tell it like it is when it comes to US Politics. Definitely the kind of voice we need in these trying times.
