Democracy in AmericaTheir words
Um, well, first of all, I think uh Toqueville's Democracy in America would be a good place to start. not going into it thinking of it as the iconic text, but going into it thinking about it as someone who is an observer from the outside looking in uh and who has, you know, both uh admiration and reservations.

From the War on Poverty to the War on CrimeTheir words
Um uh uh two other books um Elizabeth Hinton's book from the war on poverty to the war on crime which focuses on the 1960s into the early 1970s and is I think a very very interesting way of understanding how um illiberal sensibilities kind of infuse their way into what are major modern liberal projects and paved the way for mass mass incarceration, which I learned a lot from.

Troubled MemoryTheir words
And the the third book is a book by Lawrence Powell called Troubled Memory. Uh Annne Levy, the Holocaust, and David Dukes, Louisiana. It's an extraordinary story about a woman who was part of the only whole family to make it out of the lots ghetto and they end up in New Orleans.

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
