I wrote the following essay as the final paper for the history major at university back in 2009. I updated it in 2015 to use as a sample to get into graduate school, but I got rejected and now hate everyone with a higher degree. It's about the Great Leap Forward in late 1950s China and the subsequent famine, possibly the greatest disaster in human history.



I'll try to do a gaming article next, but I'm thinking it will be another history article so I can escape the tedium of game development. Probably about Cheech and Chong dodging the Vietnam draft or something.
