My name is Kurt and this is my Tumblr. Try /Ask to ask questions or /Submit or to submit posts, Or, you know, don't do any of that.
I am a Ph.D student in Salt Lake City who studies the modern Middle East and generally isn't super creative outside of writing or talking. If you see an image on this site, odds are good I didn't create it. I will try to give credit to the owner when I can, but sometimes images are hard to track down. Also, sorry if I get too liberal. I find myself drifting farther and farther left every day as I read/write more about race, identity, and power.
This is where I got the name for my blog, and this is a picture of me and my dad (I'm on the right). I don't photograph well (read: funny looking), but I like that one quite a bit.
Newspapers are essential to a functioning society. They inform; they provide context; they shine a spotlight on the shortcomings of bureaucracy, the overreaches of government (yes, this does happen — just perhaps not in the insidious manner that conservatives seem to think, or imply),…
This is a really great take on the role of newspapers and just how important their endorsements are. Give it a look if you have time.

Really love this, despite not liking inothernews and the fact that my paper isn’t doing an endorsement.
