Multimedia

I am the author of two books that reached Amazon’s top ten for political activism, and my articles have appeared in publications ranging from Foreign Policy in Focus to Germany’s Süddeutsche Zeitung. I often give presentations on political or media-related topics.

In Q3 2019, I initiated and produced some short films at European Forum Alpbach. Under ‘Samples’ on this page, you will find two of them: Design Thinking (an interview with Ivan Cestero) and Step Up Limitless, about a self-organizing group of young people.

For years, I have also done public-access television segments at the Manhattan Neighborhood Network in New York (mnn.org). I have worked with the Director/Producer Gloria Messer on these segments, and our segments have won multiple categories in the US national contest for public-access media (Hometown Media Awards from the All Community Media group). Many segments are archived on my two youtube channels (here and here).

Innovative Outreach

In Q3 2019, I initiated a media project enabling remarkable young women of a refugee background to co-interview diplomatic leaders. Two of these videos are below:
