The New Republic: "Anti-Statism in America"


I have an illustration in the current issue of The New Republic this week. It is a fantastic magazine, and I am thrilled to be published in it! The article is a fascinating study about why many Americans distrust the government and the paradoxes that come along with that distrust.
Thanks to Joe Heroun and Christine Car for this wonderful assignment.
