Ryan Holiday on America’s missing Statue of Responsibility

“​​THE STATUE OF LIBERTY was a gift from France to America, commemorating the two nations’ friendship and shared love of freedom. Completed in 1886, it marked one of the world’s first, successful crowdfunding projects. The famous poem “The New Colossus” by Emma Lazarus, mounted in bronze inside the pedestal (“Give me your tired, your poor / Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free…”), was written for the campaign. Over $100,000 was raised from more than 120,000 donors, including schoolchildren who collected pennies.”

On today’s episode of the podcast, Ryan reads his recent article about the missing statue of responsibility as proposed by the author of Man’s Search For Meaning Viktor Frankl, explains why it was such an honor for him to write, and talks about where the Stoic’s responsibility to society lies.
