Don’t just listen to me: even Peter Singer says this book challenged and changed his thinking on the importance of population. We have to make parenting easier and more equitable to sustain any of the progress we’ve made

So excited to see this book in the world! Folks on the left are shocked when I say this changed my mind about global depopulation—it’s a problem and we can’t let the right monopolize the solutions with creepy white nationalism. Fewer people will not solve any of our climate+social problems!

also I make statements now
A screenshot displaying a quote that reads: "The Roosevelt Institute is committed to putting forward policy ideas that stand against the current chaos in our governing institutions and the status quo that got us here in the first place. We all deserve a more equitable economy, and we will offer positive visions of what government can be for the American people," said Hannah Groch-Begley, director of Roosevelt's think tank. "The insights from this cohort will be vital in advancing policies that challenge entrenched power and promote a more just, democratic society, no matter how long the fight may take."

I love staying in hotels
Screenshot of a text saying “I am now back and watching an episode of Bones in which Brennan and Booth literally join the circus to solve the murder of conjoined twins who separately dated the same man while conjoined” The current prime suspect for this murder is “the clowns”

Are you writing a book about political economy/progressive policies/other things @rooseveltinstitute.bsky.social might find interesting? Do you have a book contract w/ a publisher? DO YOU LIKE MONEY? If so consider applying to our (virtual) Author in Residency! (1/x) form.jotform.com/CampusNetwor...
Screenshot of the Roosevelt Author in Residence description from the application, which includes "a $7,500 monthly stipend for 12 consecutive months" for writers to deliver on the expectations outlined in their book contract.
