The New Inquiry

Alfredo F. Riley

Haruspicy is the art of interpreting portents and communicating their meaning for public use. Alfredo F. Riley has distinguished their work as a journalist and communications professional with the acuity of a haruspex, anticipating national news cycles such as police brutality and environmental racism, the election of Donald Trump, and the relevancy of the Frankfurt School several months in advance. Riley would be chuffed to survive America long enough for Australia to pass marriage equality, to rejoin his husband.
