Meet Sabin Howard, the master sculptor behind the breathtaking World War I Memorial in Washington D.C.
In this Daily Signal interview, Howard shares his remarkable journey from a 19-year-old who had never drawn before to becoming the creator of a monumental 60-foot bronze sculpture featuring 38 figures.
Howard reveals the challenges he faced creating this national monument—from battling bureaucracy and modernist opposition to sculpting through a global pandemic. He explains his vision for art that elevates the human spirit and unites Americans around their shared history.
"It's a sculpture for We the People," says Howard, describing how he captured the energy of real veterans in his work. The memorial honors not just WWI soldiers but speaks to all who have served, creating a universal tribute to the human journey through conflict.
Howard also discusses his next ambitious project—a monument celebrating American freedom for the nation's 250th birthday, and why he's moved from the East Coast to Utah to pursue this vision.
Our interview explores the intersection of art, culture, and national identity, offering a glimpse into the mind of an artist determined to create work that brings communities together and restores pride in American history.

For a 10-month period from September 1793 to July 1794, the nation of France went through a period which could only be called insanity.
In the aftermath of the French Revolution, a small group of radicals took control of the Revolutionary French government and began eliminating all enemies of the revolution, both real and perceived.
Tens of thousands of people were imprisoned, and thousands met their end with what the French called madame la guillotine.
Learn more about the French Revolution’s Reign of Terror, why it started, and how it ended on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In Citizen Marx: Republicanism and the Formation of Karl Marx’s Social and Political Thought (Princeton UP, 2024), Bruno Leipold argues that, contrary to certain interpretive commonplaces, Karl Marx’s thinking was deeply informed by republicanism. Marx’s relation to republicanism changed over the course of his life, but its complex influence on his thought cannot be reduced to wholesale adoption or rejection. Challenging common depictions of Marx that downplay or ignore his commitment to politics, democracy, and freedom, Leipold shows that Marx viewed democratic political institutions as crucial to overcoming the social unfreedom and domination of capitalism. One of Marx’s principal political values, Leipold contends, was a republican conception of freedom, according to which one is unfree when subjected to arbitrary power.
Placing Marx’s republican communism in its historical context—but not consigning him to that context—Leipold traces Marx’s shifting relationship to republicanism across three broad periods. First, Marx began his political life as a republican committed to a democratic republic in which citizens held active popular sovereignty. Second, he transitioned to communism, criticizing republicanism but incorporating the republican opposition to arbitrary power into his social critiques. He argued that although a democratic republic was not sufficient for emancipation, it was necessary for it. Third, spurred by the events of the Paris Commune of 1871, he came to view popular control in representation and public administration as essential to the realization of communism. Leipold shows how Marx positioned his republican communism to displace both antipolitical socialism and anticommunist republicanism. One of Marx’s great contributions, Leipold suggests, was to place politics (and especially democratic politics) at the heart of socialism.
Bruno Leipold is a fellow in political theory at the London School of Economics and Political Science. He is the coeditor of Radical Republicanism: Recovering the Tradition’s Popular Heritage.
