I’m a rationalist who draws insight from my never-ending search for meaning effecting human suffering in literature, science, art, and philosophy. On August 11, 1965, as tears streamed down my cheeks, I watched black and white media coverage of Los Angeles police executing sanctioned violence, brutality, and extreme terror on People of Color; it was in that moment I realized by concentrating on marginalized and disenfranchised communities how empirical methods impact environmental law enforcement and accountability. I was only 12 years old; yes, I’d seen it before, but watching it live, as live as news coverage was in the 60s brought it home in a way I could never have imagined… Years later I discovered I could legally earn a Master’s Degree in Human Rights with a minor in the psychology of Social Justice without an associate or bachelor’s degree by soaking up as much knowledge as possible without indenturing myself, or wasting valuable time studying useless academia in an environment regurgitating inarguable historical lies; so let’s just call me an anti-scholar, someone who focuses on books, statistical data, and research papers as the true source of education and wisdom. I’ve invested countless hours in hands-on experience by disseminating the many facets of racial injustice and economic inequality, gathering quantitative data for my analytical research, and operating directly with social justice programs for more than 46 years… Now retired; I’m not a writer; I’m a researcher, a compiler of information; Human Rights Advocate, Researcher, Chronological Archivist and member in good standing with the Constitution First Amendment Press Association (CFAPA.org)
