I am a Contributor to The DYM Project and write articles for them on various social issues. 

In a world plastered with injustice, The Decolonise Your Mind (DYM) Project is a community-based initiative seeking to sow the seeds of global change. 

This change must be systemic and achieved from the bottom up in order to stand up to the current, established institutions that allow for injustice to persist, at home and around the world. These institutions continue to operate, in large part, by dint of our collective ignorance.

The DYM Project hopes to do its part in combatting this collective ignorance by providing our readers with critical but easy-to-read content on historical and current events that have been – and continue to be – consistently recalibrated by those in power to serve their interests.
