Philosophy Talks. History Walks.

As a political activist and someone who trains others in “the art of political persuasion”, I teach a good deal of psychology to people who would like to see significant changes in our political institutions. I am interested in communication, psychology and persuasion, because, as the French historian, Gustave Le Bon, wrote in “Psychology of Revolution”,

“A people cannot choose its institutions until it has transformed its mind.”
