  • Tell Me about Your Bad Guys - Fathering in Anxious Times - cover

    Tell Me about Your Bad Guys -...

    Michael Dowdy perceives the world as a poet, one with an anxiety disorder. As a result he has rarely experienced fathering or his relationship with his daughter, A, as a linear narrative. Rather, his impressions of fathering coalesce in encounters with the conditions of our time, producing intense flashes of awareness and emotion. Critiquing his own fathering practices, Dowdy's essays move between simplicity—being present for his daughter—and complexity—considering the harrowing present of entrenched misogyny, school shootings, climate change, and other threats to childing and fathering with love, optimism, and joy. 
 
 
 
The essays in Tell Me about Your Bad Guys do not provide easy answers. They follow instead an interrogative mode, guided by A's unruly questions and Dowdy's desire to avoid fatherhood literature's traps: false modesty, antic ineptitude, and defensive clowning. This means understanding fathering not as an ironclad identity or a cohesive story but as a process of trial and error, self-reflection, and radical openness. With measures of dark humor, the essays take seriously the literary, material, and political stakes of fathering and in doing so challenge patriarchal norms and one-dimensional accounts of fatherhood.

    It seems so much is going wrong in America. Some say it’s because our leaders are incompetent. Others think it’s merely a coincidence. But to millions of concerned Americans, those simplistic explanations no longer ring true. 
Instead, they sense something else is going on… 
Kevin Freeman is one of them. Drawing on his deep expertise in investigative analysis, he took a hard look at all that America is going through. Piecing together historical evidence and current events, he made a shocking discovery: 
The crises now facing America are happening according to plan. 
Decades in the making, it is a plan to take down the greatest obstacle to totalitarianism the world has ever known: the United States. And it’s a plan that will succeed—unless we join together now to save America.

    The events that led to one of the most infamous moments in early American history began with a series of escalating tensions between two towering figures of the revolutionary generation. At the heart of this saga were Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr, whose personal and political differences culminated in a duel that would forever change the course of their lives and the nation. The rivalry between these men had been simmering beneath the surface for years, driven by conflicting visions of America’s future and a deeply personal sense of pride and honor. As the nation struggled to define itself, the intensity of political passions mirrored the violence that would erupt on a fateful morning along the banks of the Hudson River. 
Hamilton, a key architect in establishing the new republic’s financial system and a fervent advocate for a strong central government, had found himself at odds with the more cautious and opportunistic Burr. Their interactions were marked by fiery debates and personal insults, each encounter stoking the flames of discord. This tension reached its climax when a series of statements and challenges, amplified by the politically charged atmosphere of the day, left little room for reconciliation. In the culture of honor that prevailed at the time, retreating or appearing weak was not an option, and thus the challenge to a duel was seen as an unavoidable, albeit tragic, path to vindication. 
On that brisk morning, amid a landscape still haunted by the memories of revolution and laden with the promise of a new beginning, both men prepared to face each other under strict codes of conduct. The duel was not just a matter of personal honor; it was emblematic of the turbulent and often dangerous era in which the young nation was emerging.
