Buckley shaped modern conservatism and inspired a generation
Bill Lacy reflects on William F. Buckley at Reagan’s memorial, crediting Buckley with catalyzing American conservatism from the 1950s onward. Buckley’s work with National Review, Firing Line, and Young Americans for Freedom helped fuse libertarian and traditionalist strands, influence the Reagan era, and inspire involvement in politics. Buckley’s philosophy of rational debate and openness to diverse views defined a generation of thinkers and leaders. Buckley’s absence leaves a gap in guiding today’s conservatism as leaders navigate its future.
