Jesse Goldberg

Jesse is a graduate student in the English Department at Cornell University where he studies African American Literature, American Studies, and 19th Century American Literature. He is also a lifelong martial artist, with the bulk of his training in Kempo, but also experience in forms of Shotokan and Kyokushin Karate and a little Tai Chi. While at Geneseo with Aaron (who graduated a year before him) and Tyler, Jesse majored in English and Philosophy and was heavily involved with the school's student newspaper, The Lamron, serving as News Editor during Aaron's final year as Opinion Editor and as Editor in Chief during his own senior year. Jesse's political writing here at Liberal D.O.G.MA focuses strongly on issues of race, but also more broadly on inequality, privilege, and violence in various manifestations in the United States.
