I study social movements, political parties and lately a bit of political theory.

I've worked as an organizer and political operative, now teaching Labor Studies and working with the new Central Coast Community Labor Project at UCSB.

I am also interested in cults and high control groups, particularly their intersection with mainstream politics and social life.

Not only have they been outrageously supportive (indulgent, perhaps) of me throughout my graduate studies, both emotionally and financially, but their lives and experiences have been background inspiration for my interest in politics, social change, and even political parties themselves. My mother is a staunch and deeply partisan Democrat, my father a progressive activist steeped in social justice and international solidarity work. My maternal grandfather was a small town Democratic Party leader in Illinois for whom Adlai Stevenson was a lifelong hero. My father's mother was an activist in Jamaica's People's National Party during that country's tumultuous first years of nationhood. Arguments in the Larimore/Hall home, about US foreign policy or the performance of Democratic presidents, served as a tremendous political schooling, and the first time I witnessed social movements and political parties mashing it up.
