A self-described anarchist since childhood, Michael has spent his life questioning authority—from visiting North Korea to fleeing New York’s COVID crackdowns. He shares why he left the city he loved, what the U.S. still gets right, and why it’s up to you, not politicians, to defend liberty and push the world in a better direction.
