About The Hurtch

The Hurtch is a home for sharp, readable writing on geopolitics, politics, society, and the strange ways the world keeps changing.

I write about the stories, ideas, arguments and contradictions that deserve a little more attention than the news cycle usually gives them — from Nigerian and American politics to global affairs, culture, policy and whatever else has caught my curiosity.

Some of my pieces explain. Some argue. Some investigate. Others simply try to make sense of something interesting before everyone moves on to the next thing. If you like writing that is curious, independent-minded and willing to look past the obvious explanation, you’ll probably feel at home here.
