    Through this collection of essays, author and activist Reagan Jackson, chronicles her journey into the world of journalism. Art, cinema, social justice, feminism, Black reparations, health & reproductive rights, dance, education—while Jackson’s subjects range far and wide, her writing brings an intimacy & immediacy to all. 
    Equal parts personal testament, structural interrogation, and social criticism, Reagan Jackson’s Still True inspires in its singularity. Jackson writes with a powerful sense of history and a wide-ranging vision, capturing a Seattle in flux, where processes of inequality, gentrification, and police violence occur alongside community struggle, vivid resistance, and countless episodes of joy. We should all hope that voices like hers blossom throughout our communities. This book is a gift to all readers and writers—aspiring, established, or otherwise. ~Sonora Jha, author of The Laughter 
    Reagan Jackson writes from the crossroads of journalism, memoir, activism, and everyday life in these raw and wild times. Jackson is a pioneer for what “writing the first draft of history” looks like in an intersectional world and a model of how media can help build the communities and worlds of the future.  
    ~Sarah Stuteville, Co-Founder of the Seattle Globalist

    Although he is still one of history’s most famous philosophers, Confucius was in many respects an unremarkable man, and even his physical features were said to be unattractive. There is little evidence that he thought of himself as a harbinger of any kind, but shortly after his death, writings, sayings, and theories based on his life and ideas spread throughout China and even took hold of the imperial court of one of the most powerful and important dynasties, the Han (206 BCE-220 CE). It was during the Han Dynasty that Confucianism became closely tied to state affairs, and it would remain so until the fall of the last dynasty in 1912.  
    	None of Socrates’ works survived antiquity, so most of what is known about him came from the writings of his followers, most notably Plato. What is known about Socrates is that he seemed to make a career out of philosophy, and Plato was intent on following in his footsteps. Yet for all of the influence of Socrates’ life on his followers, it was Socrates’ death around 399 B.C. that truly shaped them. Plato was so embittered by Socrates’ trial in Athens that he completely soured on Athenian democracy, and Aristotle would later criticize politicians who relied on rhetoric; when Aristotle’s own life was threatened, he fled Greece and allegedly remarked, “I will not allow the Athenians to sin twice against philosophy." 
    	Alongside Pericles, Cicero was one of antiquity’s greatest politicians, and he has remained one of the most influential statesmen in history, relied upon by the Romans of his day, political philosophers like John Locke, Enlightenment thinkers like Rousseau, and America’s Founding Fathers. Thomas Jefferson credited Cicero as an inspiration for the Declaration of Independence, and John Adams asserted, "As all the ages of the world have not produced a greater statesman and philosopher united than Cicero, his authority should have great weight.”

    [How to Be Alone] is a mesmerizing exploration of solitude that unravels the intricate tapestry of human aloneness with raw honesty and lyrical precision. Through crystalline prose that cuts straight to the marrow of modern isolation, this groundbreaking work illuminates the distinction between loneliness and solitude, revealing how the art of being alone is not merely an absence of others, but a presence unto itself. With unflinching insight into the way silence speaks in its own language and time moves at its own pace when we're truly by ourselves, the book transforms our understanding of solitary moments from something to be feared into something to be embraced. Like an intimate conversation held in the quiet hours of dawn, it guides readers through the subtle geography of solo existence, offering both practical wisdom and philosophical depth that resonates with startling clarity in our hyperconnected age.

  • Plutocracy - The Rule of Wealth: How Economic Power Influences Political Decision-Making - cover

    Plutocracy - The Rule of Wealth:...

    Plutocracy, often described as the rule of wealth, refers to a political system in which economic elites hold significant influence over government decisions, shaping policies to favor their interests. This concentration of power is not limited to authoritarian regimes or monarchies but can also be observed in modern democracies, where wealth and power are deeply intertwined. In such systems, political decisions are often made in ways that protect and increase the wealth of the rich, while the needs and concerns of the broader population are sidelined. 
    The concept of plutocracy is not a recent phenomenon. Throughout history, societies have been dominated by a small group of wealthy individuals or families who controlled vast resources and used their wealth to influence political outcomes. Whether through the control of land, natural resources, or capital, the wealthy elite have been able to dictate the direction of national policies, often at the expense of the lower classes. From the Roman Empire to the monarchies of Europe, political power and economic power have often been inextricably linked. 
    In modern democracies, the influence of wealth on politics is more subtle but no less pervasive. Campaign financing, lobbying, and the revolving door between government and corporate sectors are just a few examples of how wealth can shape political agendas. Political campaigns are expensive, and politicians often rely on wealthy donors and interest groups to fund their campaigns. In return, these donors and groups expect favorable legislation or regulatory policies. As a result, the political system becomes more responsive to the needs of the wealthy, while the voices of ordinary citizens are drowned out.
