Serving as a sort of balance – for lack of a better word – to the neoc*n article I posted a few hours ago, here is a Frontline interview with Hamza Yusuf, a man for whom I have an endless amount of respect and admiration. He references Thoreau, Shakespeare and The Song of Roland; he discusses hegemony, foundations of democracy, need for dissent, and the role of media, etc.

It is the likes of him who make me proud. Not to mention that he’s TOTALLY cute.
