Fresh Perspectives, produced by Omni Art Salon Productions, offers listeners around the world the opportunity to hear fascinating, in-depth conversations with authors, scientists, politicians, doctors, academics, innovators, and artists investigating today’s most compelling ideas and concepts.
Jeffrey investigates the foundation for freedom and consciousness in the life and work of United States Founder George Mason elucidating upon the precarious nature of his times and how they are so relevant today. Included is Jeffrey’s recitation of an extraordinary article Jeffrey recently came across written by Robert Carter Pittman in 1953 that was originally published in the Autograph Collector’s Journal, Spring Convention Edition.
Mr. Pittman was the author of many articles in the field of constitutional law and history, published in the American Bar Association Journal, the Virginia Law Review, the Georgia Bar Journal, the Alabama Lawyer, the Florida Law Journal, and other publications.
In the early 1940’s, Pittman began collecting originals and copies of letters, manuscripts and holographs by, or relative to, George Mason of Virginia, author of the Virginia Declaration of Rights, June 12 1776, and the Virginia Constitution of the same year—from which our U.S. Constitution’s Bill of Rights was derived. Mr. Pittman was considered by many to be an authority on the Bill of Rights and constitutional law pertaining to it.
Mr. Pittman’s article is self definitional as you will understand upon hearing his exceptionally clear understanding of the importance of The Bill of Rights and why it is so threatened today in 21st Century America and the entire world, and why it is so relevant to the crisis of consciousness, truth and quality of life that humanity is experiencing in the sea of corruption that engulfs our world today.
It is inspiring to know that against all odds this incredible Bill of Rights which has served as security for the exploration of consciousness and expansion of ideas that have made The United States so extraordinary was somehow saved and eventually embedded in the US Constitution, surviving powerful attacks since it’s very inception to ensure that those who are doing independent and important work in evolving consciousness will be protected against the forces of greed, corruption and despotism with sometimes a very thin line, but a line that holds firm because it based in the strength of truth.
