Privileged to be on the first of the Golden Princess catalogue to hit the UK, Ringo Lam's seminal City on Fire. The booklet features a piece where I detail Lam's personal and professional journey up to that point while also getting into what exactly Golden Princess are. (I also redid the subtitles)

Prominent far-right influencers have been attempting to rehabilitate Hitler's reputation. That's not an exaggeration; it's easily documented. I wrote about why they are doing this, what they hope to gain, and what it means for America.
