Along with a copy of the 13th Amendment, I typically carry a copy of historian Timothy Snyder’s “On Tyranny” in my satchel when I’m headed out of the door in the morning. Both are small and fit well into the pocket next to my laptop. The amendment, with its loophole for enslavement, remains a frank reminder of American imperfection.
