An uplifting story

03/25/2024

Here is some glorious news thanks to the Brownstone Institute and Elon Musk. Dr. Kulvinder Kaur Gill has made the goal of $300K raised to keep her from bankruptcy and homelessness. A push from Brownstone friends raised $182K in one week and then the case grabbed the attention of Elon Musk. The legal team from X called her and gave her the good news that they would take care of the rest, cover her other legal bills, and take the case to the Supreme Court of Canada if necessary.

There has been so much suffering and sadness that this beautiful news comes as a source of happiness and hope. Yes, millions of others still suffer and freedom itself is in grave danger. But this case shows what happens when people of goodwill come together to stand up for truth, with brave conviction and a determination not to let evil win.

Dr. Gill has been there from the beginning, pleading for the rights of her patients against overweening power from government, tech, and media. She paid a very heavy price for her opposition to lockdowns and mask and vaccine mandates. She and her family attended the first Brownstone annual event in 2021 and we've been close colleagues ever since.

In this case, too, Elon Musk played the role of the angel of mercy. He took over Twitter to protect free speech against what was a government push to nationalize and shut down the entire Internet. He has been a champion of ideals ever since, making their plans impossible, while opening up the files that prove the existence of a vast censorship conspiracy.

Occasions like this cause us to reflect on the reality of our times. The emergency is ongoing. None of us can on our own fix everything. We know that. And yet there are ways in which we can make a difference, one life at a time.

We had hoped to offer Dr. Gill a fellowship to bridge her out of her difficulties but we needed to wait for this disaster to pass. But now that this is done, we would so much like to bring her into the fold with a fellowship to provide her support and community in these times.

You did it! We all did it!
