Introduction!
Hi!
Welcome to the Substack, my name is Samad. I’m a UNC student, writer, advocate, and urban planner etc. etc. etc.
I’ve been writing quite a bit over the last few years, some of it is even good! This is just intended a place to gather those pieces in one spot and add some of my own ruminations + some data visualization stuff.
Expect urbanism, housing, election and polling, North Carolina/Chapelboro/Durham politics content, and anything else I find interesting enough to write a few hundred words about.
You should be able to find all the pieces I’ve written for the Daily Tarheel and Carolina Forward here. New stuff will be coming soon!
If you’ve read anything I’ve written and found it worth your time you should subscribe! It’s free!! You’ll get an email anytime I publish something new.
If you’re an editor/journalist/partisan hack and you want to pay me to write for you, send me an email at Samadrangoonwala@gmail.com or a message on Twitter @Samadran we can talk :D
