“I mean, you've been a politician. You know this better than me. Voters, they're not all policy wonks, but they can sure as hell smell fear and smell caution and smell when you're not telling them what you really think.
And you watched, you know, the last crop of National Democrats sit on a podcast or do something unstructured, and you could feel the fear oftentimes. You could watch them, like, the thing they actually thought flicker across their face and they tell you something else. And it doesn't work, not in this media environment, not in this era.”

Pac-Mania

I think Pac-Mania was one of the earliest manias I gave myself over to. The others that may have been as all-consuming in scale for a younger bava would’ve been some collecting Smurfs and all-things Star Wars. Also, a bit later, in 1981, there would be an acute affliction of a Raiders of the Lost Ark mania. There are probably a few other object-orientated obsessions I’m neglecting from my […]

In 1920, Charles Garland,
the wealthy heir to a banking fortune, made newspaper headlines for doing the unthinkable:
he declined to accept an inheritance of more than a million dollars from his late father’s estate. 
Garland was disillusioned by the era’s gross #inequality
— the top 10 percent of American income earners took in half the country’s annual national income.
Garland saw his refusal to add to that problem as a way of standing up to systemic economic inequality. 
But #Upton #Sinclair,
author of “The Jungle,” the 1906 novel that exposed the brutal working conditions in the Chicago stock yards,
read about Garland’s decision and thought he had a better idea.
In a letter to Garland, Sinclair urged him not to refuse the money, but to instead give it away.
He put him in touch with #Roger #Baldwin, a Harvard-educated labor advocate who had just founded the
American Civil Liberties Union.
Garland and Baldwin met and came up with a plan.
Garland would bequest nearly a million dollars
(the rough equivalent of $18 million today)
to endow a philanthropic foundation called the "American Fund for Public Service".
Baldwin would run the foundation with a board of directors comprised of people who were actively involved in efforts to create a more just society

‘The Radical Fund’: How a spurned inheritance fueled progressive change

In his new book, Yale’s John Fabian Witt details how a little-known foundation funded by a wealthy banking heir sought to bring about a more just society in the first half of the 20th century.
