Kudos to Dr. Ronan for sharing 16 philosphers that go beyond the Dead-White-Male = Last great white hope tropes endemic to academia! I especially appreciate that some of your collection are still alive. Two have been victimized by corporate capitalist higher education elite institutions. Each fired twice by situations they freely chose (?) each time. Their maltreatment makes perfect sense only when you factor in how theses institutions were built on human exploitation at different points in the world history timeline UC Berkeley from investing in apartheid (divested 3 billion of total endowment in 1986) ; Harvard from Asian opioid trade) . Appparently, you can put lipstick on anything and make it attractive, but when the lipstick invariably wears off, what lies hidden are always revealed.
