Greetings folks, Evancwolf here looking for some new pubs. My old editor at Politically Speaking tragically had to let it go due to time constraints and I find I write less (and less well) without the structure of some publications. So, with that in mind, I think my favorite historical figure was Alcibiades. Amazing general, wacky philosopher, rogue, international man of mystery... I think we'd have a grand old time in his time or mine. Second, I think we can, and must, judge the past and cannot help but do so with today's lens. The best we can do is be mindful of our own worldview and keep in mind that all things are relative. Thanks for the consideration!
