Honorary Hooligans
Since we first started in June of 2004, we’ve maintained a list of people who have inspired us and who have served as guiding spirits, not just in our blogging activities but in our everyday lives. These are the Honorary Scrutiny Hooligans, and they run the gamut from poets and songwriters to philosophers, activists, provocateurs and heads of state. Some of their names or their work may or may not be familiar, but we hope that by clicking on their links you’ll be inspired to learn a little bit more about them and discover some of their work.
