Two Facebook friends of mine… Catherine Z…. She’s a young black woman who is supportive of the current NFL player protests, solid approval of President Obama, and is indifferent regarding universal healthcare. One of her profile pictures was the 2008/2016 split Obama first family portrait. And her most current post states “Yessss ‘Auntie Maxine,’ get […]
This tidbit may come as a surprise, but no one outside of Spain knew anything of Catalonia’s historical struggle and aspirations for independence a few years ago. Even today, most people have at the very least a minimal concept about this region and the dream that its people have of being free. When an internal struggle […]
Detroit rapper Eminem has never been shy about attacking his adversaries, NEVER. And if you didn’t know where he stood, he unequivocally stated his position and disdain for President Trump during the 2017 BET Hip Hop Freestyle Cypher. He also dedicated several lyrics in support for Colin Kaepernick and other NFL player who’ve chosen to kneel in […]
The last 10 months of the Trump Administration have been fraught with upheaval, uncertainty, and unpreparedness. It’s one thing to have a president who doesn’t know what he’s doing; it’s quite another to have a president who doesn’t know what he’s doing and sabotages the efforts of the people who do. Trump is the enemy […]
Rex Tillerson has had a less-than-illustrious tenure as Secretary of State so far. Perhaps it’s because he seems to be more focused on reorganizing the department than on, you know, diplomacy. His striking lack of success has lead many to call for his resignation and for him to be called the “most ineffectual secretary of […]
About The LCR
Left, Center, Right
The LCR is a digital publication that features unique perspectives from the political Left, Center, and Right. Our contributor’s are not journalists or lobbyists working for a newspaper or organization with a set agenda. Instead, they are everyday people, and their genuine insights on social and political issues go unheard everyday. We give our contributors a platform to discuss their viewpoints without fear of retribution from friends, family, or the workplace, where social and political issues can quickly become contentious. The LCR does this through a level of anonymity, which allows our contributors to truly verbalize their genuine thoughts on a variety of topics that affect them and all of our subscribers. Instead of name and employer, our contributors are featured through profiles that paint a clear picture. LCR profiles include certain demographics, such as age, race, gender and education, as well their profession and political affiliation.
We believe that community progress and success, whether on main street or Wall Street, is best achieved when we take the time to listen and understand opposing views. Ideological differences, uncompromising positions, and an unwillingness to listen to different views will only create greater divide. This divide is ultimately detrimental to having efficient and compassionate communities, and poses a threat to revenue growth for organizations that fail to promote such practices as part of their mission. Through unique perspectives, we seek to strengthen and improve communities, create valuable and highly functioning organizations, and encourage a dialogue regarding tough issues that inevitably impact everyone, regardless of race, gender, political, socioeconomic, or professional lines.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to charity.
The LCR was founded by three socially conscious entrepreneurs who met during their studies at Columbia Business School.
