samsnewsletter.doc is…

A place where I share the thoughts and feeling I have about religion, politics, culture, and my time in graduate school. Instead of being focused on forming arguments and making points, this newsletter is, in a sense, a collection of process documents.

I’m mostly interested in being reflective on what it feels like to interact with the topics I mentioned above. Whether in a conversation, on Instagram, or in a text book, we interact with these things every day. They have a hold on us. So I find it help to reflect on what they feel like, and I hope you find it helpful, too.
