About the author
I hold a doctorate and have worked in the public sector on behalf of poor people from every background imaginable. There’s little of the United States I’ve not visited. I’ve spent considerable time living in red, blue, and purple states, as well as overseas. The longer life lets on, the more I’ve found myself upset with the state of intellectual discourse in the country, with every issue framed for algorithmic engagement, not honesty. Some famous journalist somewhere said, “if you believe in yourself, just go publish your own stuff.” So here we are. Thanks.
