Column: ICE must be destroyed
"Justifying the actions of ICE fundamentally requires that one believes that immigrants are less deserving of fundamental rights than other people, a vision of the world that places human worth on a hierarchy determined by where a person was born."
Column: Toxic masculinity and political amateurs

Column: Make your voice heard and join our editor selection committee
Now that the dust has (mostly) settled from Student Government elections, it’s time to focus on a different UNC institution’s much-less-annoying selection process for leaders: the editor-in-chief race at The Daily Tar Heel.
Column: Through a townie's lens
So, when you look at this photograph, don’t just see what you think you see. I invite you to see the layers of meaning.

Column: Learning to open my eyes
"I don’t really know how to make sense of a world where people do unimaginable things. I don’t know where such violence and hatred comes from. I don’t know what the right way to respond to something like this is, or if there even is one."
