Defeat Authoritarian Propaganda Together!

I wrote AUTHORITARIANISM AND PROPAGANDA: The Puppet Master Tools as a direct warning. The geopolitical crises shocking the world today were carefully telegraphed, as authoritarian propagandists ruthlessly hijack people’s virtues and inherent biases. Their consistent goal is to divide, weaken, and make us softer targets. These destructive tactics are well-known globally — often learned too late by those under the authoritarian heel. Our mission is to teach you how to protect the freedom that is currently being taken for granted.

The HLC Writing Philosophy

The foundation of Half Life Crisis™ is communication through writing, driven by a need to share essential insights. Our non-fiction analysis is designed to be thought-provoking, challenging readers in unexpected ways. This level of depth is why every book cover deliberately carries a warning. Within, you will find hundreds of hidden Easter eggs and deliberate symbolism. If you seek a literary adventure leading to a much deeper, introspective experience, you have found the work we publish.

Story Corps

On June 4, 2024, our story was recorded at the WHRO building for the StoryCorps project. Joining this legacy is an honor that deeply inspires the Half Life Crisis mission to document and share authentic American voices.

Story Corps® A Legacy of Voices

I’ve always looked forward to the inspiring voices on StoryCorps as they played on the radio while I commuted, wondering how these stories were captured and archived. I got answers to all my questions when StoryCorps visited the Hampton Roads area! My new friends, Jeb and Delilah, walked me through the process, and we shared heartwarming conversations before, during, and after the recording in the WHRO building in Norfolk, Virginia.

My experience was delightfully humbling; sharing my story was liberating—I relearned so much about myself through memories that had been buried for so long. It was life-changing. The voice of the person I truly am was immortalized in a way that will transcend my very existence. Thanks to StoryCorps, I hope my words will now resonate with others, just as the many stories I heard over the years resonated with me.
