Outrider 50 - EP Thompson, dissent and defiance
Every ten Outriders we summon a remarkable human. An Outrider. Who challenged. Questioned. Fought. Who pushed us away from banality and mediocrity. For Outrider 50, we explore the life and research of E.P. Thompson. We remember what we have lost from higher education. And who we have lost. This Outrider is dedicated to Piper and Aidan.
