Most of my writing these days is on my Substack, Eminent Americans, but I’m still publishing the occasional freelance piece. These three are my most recent:
Ben Horowitz Is Boring, September 19, 2024, Arc
The Renaming of Robert E. Lee Elementary Started a Civil War in My Neighborhood, July 29, 2024, Texas Monthly
What Rush Hath Wrought, April 11, 2024, Persuasion
The first is on venture capitalist extraordinaire Ben Horowitz and his recent turn toward Trump after a lifetime of supporting Democrats. The second is about my personal experience of working to get the name of my kids’ elementary school changed. And the third is a reflection on the malign influence of Rush Limbaugh.
