Occupation: Professor of English at a community college in Norfolk, Virginia.
Religious affiliation: Buddhist.
Ideological Affiliation: Gaian Humanist.
Gaian--a citizen of the only living planet (Gaia) we will ever know, whose allegiance to the living Earth takes precedence over all other allegiances.
Humanist--the inheritor of a tradition of liberal thought extending all the way, through the European enlightenment, back to the first stirrings of humanist thought in ancient Greece; a believer in the intrinsic value of all human beings, human cultures, and human ways of knowing.
Signature Quote (from Martin Luther King, Jr):
"We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly."
