Episode 37
Wednesday, 4 February, 2026
What if the biggest battles in history — slavery, colonialism, surveillance, censorship, and even modern social media — all share the same underlying pattern?In this episode of The Liberty Brief, Dr. Thomas Giordano reveals the framework he developed while writing The Unbroken Stream and expanded in his new book The Sovereign Self.At the center of his work is the Personhood Index, a diagnostic tool that measures how any system — past or present — either supports or erodes natural personhood across five domains: Autonomy, Dignity, Agency, Privacy, and Continuity.We explore:• How legal systems redefine personhood when convenient• Why the unborn, enslaved people, women, and indigenous children were all categorized away from natural personhood• How modern platforms like TikTok erode autonomy algorithmically• The Enlightenment split between individual sovereignty and collective authority• Locke, Kant, Jefferson vs. Hobbes, Rousseau, Hegel, and Marx• Why the Founders feared centralized power — and whether they were rightThis conversation connects history, philosophy, and modern technology into one powerful question:Do you still own yourself — or have you been reduced to something managed?If you value deep conversations about liberty, natural rights, and the future of human dignity, subscribe and share this episode.It's all based on the book UnaLIENable: What it Really Means and Why it Matters by Dr. Thomas V.
