Thanks. Lots of good writers and interesting people and thinkers on this platform. My niche is foreign service type stories and seeing current events through a foreign service lens. Douglass was a polymath, usually spoken of as a diplomat only in connection with his official role in Haiti. But he was much more of a diplomat than that. Keep up the interesting work.
Thanks for that Ken. One ambition I have is to write in a readable way. So I appreciate your comment. Feel free to share; I'm hoping that young people considering a foreign service/international affairs/government-type career of the kind you and I have had will find some of these stories, reflections and comments interesting. Thanks again.
This is excellent.

Beautifully written and deeply insightful piece; engaging and educational as well.
Many thanks Alexis.
